We went on a trip last month to see family in Indiana and Minnesota!
While there I took some half face shots of my nieces and nephews for a possible grandkids wall 😉
And Nick let me get a shot of him so now I have my whole family!
Not sure what I will do with them yet.
Got some family shots of my sister and their youngest (oldest is an adult so he was not there).
We also took some group shots!
We were so close to having everyone!
My brother and sister and their families were not there and one nephew!
My parents have the nicest walking path nearby!
It was a beautiful time of year to walk on it!
Nick went into the store to get all the kids that braved the walk a treat 😉
It was warm enough to swim while we were up there!!!
The kids had a blast and I am glad we enjoyed the warm weather because it was about to get a lot colder on our next stop 😉
I still really liked it though.
The playground near our site was really nice!
The kids still had fun even if they had to stay close to the shore.
We did not see any but we did see a snake or two and this fawn.
On Saturday we went to Beavers Bend State Park and it was kind of the start of a not great rest of the trip.
This spot was pretty cool though.
And in trying to avoid the crowds I picked a difficult hike which had lots of climbing without the amazing views that make it worth it.
It was one of those push yourself and be happy when you make it back to your car and can be done hiking type hikes…
This was a beautiful campground though that I would not mind staying at again.

This guy thinks I should just play with him while I am outside at night.
On saturday we braved the possible crowds and went to Little Blue Area near Disney Park.
There were a lot of people near the deeper part but thankfully you could spread out and mostly stay away from people.
It is such a beautiful, clear creek!
This little butterfly decided she was a great place to rest on for a while.
