Spawn of Yocom Day Three

Happy 4th of July! We had a fantastic day with Dad and Ann and siblings in Fort Atkinson. From attending the small town ice-cream social to watching the backyard fireworks, we had a good old-fashioned time.

Spawn of Yocom Day One

Jen and her kids flew in to Minneapolis to drive with us to the 4th of July gathering at Dad and Ann's in Fort. We had a crazy long and complex struggle with our rental van that ended up with our taking possession of a 15 passenger van that reminded all of us of a church van. Andre named it Dennis after a character in Thomas the Tank. We decided to christen it the Spawn of Yocom van, in honor of all 4 Yocom kids gathering for firecrackers and fun. Here are first day photos:
