Costa Rica





Two of our best friends got married last week in Costa Rica and we were lucky enough to be able to be there to celebrate with them.

We did so many fun things I don't even know where to start- I guess I should begin at the beginning.

Day 1 (Saturday): We started off at Hotel La Pradera near La Fortuna which is adjacent to Arenal Volcano.



Day 2 (Sunday): Canyoning and Rapelling tour



Day 3 (Monday): EcoGlide Zipline tour, Hiking at Arenal and Baldi Hot Springs



Day 4 (Tuesday): Made our way to Hotel La Finesterra at Playa Hermosa


Day 5 (Wednesday): Check in at Hilton Papagayo and relax




Day 6 (Thursday): Christina and Simon tie the knot!



Day 7 (Friday): Snorkeling and more relaxation

Day 8 (Saturday): Time to head back home. What a great trip!!!

Rockwell 4th




Adam and I spent the 4th of July in Okoboji, Iowa this year with his family. Seems a little odd since Minnesota is supposed to be the "Land of 10,000 lakes". Why would we go to Iowa of all places? Okoboji is, hands down, the best place on the planet to spend this holiday. From boat rides, to spending time with the whole family, barbecuing, Arnold's Park and perfect fireworks over the lake it really feels like you just walked into a Norman Rockwell painting. I tried to take a few photos and videos this year to capture how awesome it is, but of course, nothing does it justice. So if you ever get a chance- go to Boji on the 4th and see it for yourself!
