Wedding Bells!

Wedding bells will soon be ringing for Dave and Christa! We are excited for our trip out to Ft. Collins. It should be a fun packed weekend! Dan is trying to find a creative costume for the Tour de Fat. I am looking forward to see Dan ride a bike, while drinking some great Fat Tire; should prove to be entertaining. The wedding will be Sunday and I am sure we will be posting pictures quickly. I'm looking forward to seeing all of the Lund's, seems like it's been awhile since we were all together.

On the other side of the family, lots of prayers and good thoughts are heading to Melissa, Shaun and Bryce. We found out a week ago that Shaun has colon cancer. He returned home today after a week's stay at the hospital to recuperate from his surgery and prepare to fight like crazy. Shaun is young, healthy and very motivated to be a survivor for a very very long time. LOVE YOU SHAUN!

Weekend at Mom's

Dan spent his Memorial Day weekend working to beautify her surroundings!

Needless to say, I remain Mom's favorite son!

Caribbean Cove Water Park!

On January 1, Uncle Dan and Aunt Amy went to Indianapolis to see Ethan and Olivia. After a few hours at the Lund's house, we took the kids to the hotel! Olivia was very excited when she saw the water slides sticking out of the hotel! I don't think she really understood what she was seeing, but the colorful tubes were impressing her.

We quickly checked into the the hotel and went straight to the pool. Ethan and Olivia loved the kiddie area with a jungle gym structure set into a shallow pool. Ethan liked to control the water by turning the values on the gym set. Olivia quickly found the lazy river and traveled many laps around and around.

Ethan and Olivia ventured onto the slides once or twice each. They went down the "yellow, tube slide" with Uncle Dan. Poor Olivia was the first one down the slide with Uncle Dan. Unfortunately for her, halfway down the slide, we rolled off of our inner tube and had to scoot down the rest of the way. Poor Ethan had a faster trip down the slide, but we bounced off our inner tube and plunged into the pool at the end. Needless to say, they liked it enough to go down it again the NEXT day!

Enjoy the videos! I've posted it on Vimeo and Youtube just to compare the quality of the videos. The Vimeo video should be in full high def quality.
