Today was cousin August's confirmation and cousin Ellie's birthday celebration...
so we had to dress up!!
Rorek didn't even mess with the tie until the end of the day.

After arriving in Iowa, we were able to meet Tate. Tate is Nicole's new addition (college friend, Arc coworker, and NC roommate). Tate was born a few days after we arrived and we met him soon after his arrival home.

Rorek's first (international) flight

The flight attendent complimented Rorek's good behavior on the flight. I was exhausted after a flight of making sure he "behaved".

Rorek was a pretty good seat partner.

Stretching out at the airport during our 5hour layover.

We made it, but didn't get to bed until midnite, and we were up at 3am on the internet!!
