Pipgras Family Reunion 2010

The second week of our trip was spent in Wisconson at some condos a little north of Wisconson Dells. The resort had a pool, golf course, lake, basketball, volleyball etc. So there was lots to do right at the condos. One day we went out to a dairy farm that Mel's cousin has there. That was a lot of fun and the kids had a good time seeing all the different animals and tractors at the farm. One evening the ladies went out to a pottery place to decorate some pieces of pottery and have them fired. Another day a group went to a water park in Wisconson Dells. That was a big hit!! Paxton really liked that day. The rest of the time was spent visiting with family and swimming and playing games and EATING!!! We headed home on Friday before lunch and stopped at Jen and Greg's for the night before coming the rest of the way home on Saturday. It was a really fun trip. Two countries (US and Canada), ten states (NH, VT, NY, PA, MI, IN, IL, WI, OH and MA), 3,100 miles.
Playing catch just after we arrived on Saturday
