First off, it was his FIRST vacation. A couple of weeks back we planned to spend a weekend in Panora, IA, with my fam...the Lynch's and my mama and papa. And we had a great time, just relaxing, eating, drinking and soaking up the last of the summer days & nights.
The other FIRSTS our little man experienced this weekend...
- first BIG climb onto furniture
- first time fishing in the lake...and holding a fishing pole (Nanu would be so proud)
- first parade..small town, Guthrie County parade...and it was awesome
- first golf cart ride
- first time on a carousel
- first HOT DOG (now this is a BBQ must)
- first time on a pony (@ the Guthrie County fair)
- first TOOTH started coming through on the last day!
