Lake of the Ozarks -- Guthrie and Sieren Families

Continuing our summer of fun, we took the family to the Lake of the Ozarks!  Our friend Kristin's parents have a home in the Ozarks and they invited our family to join them at the lake.  It was the second time for the girls to ride in a boat (the first time was in Gordon's parents boat, but I'm not sure if they remember).  We all had a great time water-skiing, tubing, riding around in the golf cart, and enjoying our time with wonderful friends!

Summer Vegas 2014

We went on our annual Vegas trip over the 4th of July holiday and stretched out our stay over 10 days!  It was such a great time with so many wonderful stories!  This year our good friends, Adam and Kristin, joined us in Las Vegas and helped us celebrate Independence Day too.  As you'll see in the slideshow, we had a party with family and friends, which included my Dad's super fun, super silly string fight...Drake's favorite!!  We also took the family to Red Rock Canyon and the Kids Discovery Museum, plus we spent countless hours in the pool.  The adults enjoyed fabulous dinners, the Beatles Love Cirque de Soleil show, and lounging by the Pool at Encore Beach Club while dancing to Steve Angello.  Once again, we had an amazing time in Las Vegas!!

New York, New York

In June, Gordon and I celebrated our 36th birthdays in New York City!  It was Gordon's first trip to the Big Apple and we were welcomed by one of my best friends, Alexis, and her fiance Alex.  They were amazing hosts and showed us a great time!  We did everything touristy and even went to a polo match.  We loved every minute and hope to return the favor by having Alexis and Alex join us in Iowa :)

Alexa's Birthday Party

Alexa had two parties to ring in her 3rd birthday.  A family party on her actual birthday of August 5th and another one on August 16th to celebrate with her friends.  We rented out The Little Gym for 15 kids and they had a great time.  I took so many pictures because that was my only job...the instructors took care of everything else!!
