On the road again…destination: LaCrosse, WI!

The kids and I could hardly contain our excitement as we loaded up the car to visit Andrew in Wisconsin! Six weeks without him and we were all missing our man!

Gunderson-Lutheran Hospital in LaCrosse paid for a hotel for our family for two out of our three night trip. The program fits really well with Andrew and he thoroughly enjoyed his time in LaCrosse and at the hospital!

Like a bee to honey, Andrew quickly evaluated the climbing routes.

The kids loved this bridge. And of course all the time with dad!

LaCrosse has a great children's park with “nature-viewing” trails next door. The trails took us through a beautiful marsh area where the kids loved counting turtles and ducks.

We had a fantastic time hiking, playing, swimming, eating ice cream, watching trains, walking, and the best of all, just being together as a family!
