Sorry it's been so long since we updated the blog. It's been a busy time for us. We've had friends visit, seen friends marry, I got a new job, Ben got a raise, and Sulli has been busy building impressive Lego armies powered by the almighty chi.

| We have a wild animal sanctuary close by. It's kind of amazing and pretty sad. Most of the animals are rescues from people who tried to get them as pets. They have a lot of acreage and I'm so glad they exist, but it's sad that they have to exist. |

| We have a Chuck E Cheese in Foco. It's a bit different now but still fun. It's no Rock-afire Explosion though I'll tell you that! Sulli has finally learned how to play Skeeball. He has interesting form don't you think? |
 |
| The mountains here are stunning |
 |
| We made it back to MT to watch Josh and Elisha tie the knot. It was wonderful being home and spending time with family and friends. |
 |
| Sulli and Sage were reunited! |

 |
| And there were cupcakes! |
And dancing
