The Band Shell @ Grandview Park: Sx City, IA

Mark's family has a tradition of going to the band shell at Grandview Park and taking family pictures every time all the siblings get back to Sioux City at the same time.

Grandma & Grandpa Rousselle's Home

We stayed with Mark's parents from June 29th until July 3rd. Olivia got to meet several cousins for the first time in 2 years! There was lots of outdoors fun and Olivia was in heaven with all the attention her cousins showered on her!

Moon Family Reunion 2008

Our Moon Family Reunion was in Owatonna, MN at Jack & Paige's home this year. It was a nice weekend of backyard fun and a celebration of all the little kids' birthdays.



































Mall Of America

We went to the Mall of America while in Shakopee, MN. Olivia had so much fun at the amusement park located inside the mall! Truth be told...so did we!
















Olivia's First Haircut

We visited our friends, Teresa & Roger Stevens, in Shakopee, MN the week of June. Teresa is the person that introduced Mark and I. Since Teresa is a hair dresser, she wanted to be the first one to cut Olivia's hair since it is her "Love Child"! LOL Anyway, Olivia doesn't have much hair so we give her bangs. She didn't want to wear the cape but overall she did pretty good.
