Jason, Lily and I travelled up to Lake Okoboji this past week and weekend for a friend's wedding. We were able to enjoy 5 days and 4 nights of pure beauty and time away from home. On the way up we made a pit stop in Sioux City to Jason's sister's house to surprise Lily's cousins. It was so fun to see them run off of the school bus and run into the house and say..."Is Lily here!?"

The weather in Okoboji was cool and rainy most of our stay, but none the less we still had a great time. We stayed at the Inn of Okoboji and our room was right on the lake. There was a nice outdoor pool, but because of the weather we were only able to swim in the indoor pool. We made a few trips to Arnold's Park, but the first day we went it wasn't open yet. Apparently, the town doesn't really open up until Memorial Day weekend. We went back the next day and all of the shops were open so we spent some time just wandering through them. We never did get a chance to actually get out on the lake, but we will for sure be visiting again! We got home on Sunday afternoon so I could work on Sunday night. On Monday we enjoyed the company of my family for a nice BBQ at our house.

Lily has been...not too bad...but a little crabby lately because she is teething...like CRAZY! A week and a half ago she had one and a half teeth (the second hadn't completely come through yet). Today, she has 5 teeth! I swear each time she goes to bed and wakes up she has a new tooth! She now has 3 on the bottom and 2 on the top. Poor baby...it must hurt like heck!
