Sydney Passes

Our last night in Palatine, IL wasn’t that good of a night for Sydney.  She definitely wasn’t feeling good and had diarrhea all night long.  We were up a couple of times to clean it up.  We decided to head up to northern Wisconsin to our friends lake house.  On Read more

Northern WI

When we woke up we found Sydney not doing so well.  I’ve decided to create a separate blog on her – to follow shortly. Had a nice slow drive up to Lakewood, WI and stayed at the Heaven’s Up North Campground which was situated a few miles from our friends, Read more

We headed up to Norton, OH just outside of Akron to visit with some friends of ours, Anne and Ant Cannon, for a few days.  Anne is another one of those BeautiControl girls that Kat developed a relationship with over the years. We parked at the Lake Campground which had Read more
