The silver lining of any great loss is that it brings together those who are left in it's wake. After we got home from our adventure with Steve, we turned right around and flew out to Wisconsin. And while there was an obvious void in the company, the memories were still warm and full of the kind of love that gets you through the toughest of times.
Mama and her boy... this one just grows like a little weed!!
Norah and Aureila didn't waste any time having the most fun they possibly could!
I got to be with my girl and my two favorite nieces... at the same time!

"Nap" time... yeah right!

Sue had such an amazing show of support from her truly amazing friends.
We spent an afternoon out on Eddie's farm to visit Aurelia's pony (yes, Aurelia has a pony!), Millie. At first Norah just wanted to hold the pony's 'leash'.
But after a while she warmed up to the idea of riding with Aurelia.
We headed to Sturgeon Bay for a quick weekend Ben and Lori and Aurelia and Nelson. One of our favorite destinations was visiting The Farm. You could get a bottle to feed the baby goats... Norah just loved it!
Nelson was a fan too!
There were barn cats a plenty!
Some of them weren't quick enough to escape Norah's grasp!
The girls in a classic ride.
Aurelia, the baby chick whisperer!
Doin some push ups!
Grandma Fox sponsored an epic carbo load for the Meyer brothers before they did the 'Race around the Lake" (Winnegabo) in honor of Steve. Greg rode Steve's bike and smoked a cigarette across the finish line... Steve would be so proud!
