Dear Hayden,

We just spent a long weekend in South Dakota. You had a great time playing with your cousins, and doing other things that you don’t normally do!

You  rode horses with Uncle Jim:

We visited Mt. Rushmore:

You had a sing-a-long with Uncle Jim:

You played with your cousin Josey:

You played in the creek:

You enjoyed the nightly campfire:

We went to a park that is Flinstone-themed:

You watched your cousins Soren, Clayton and Ben play baseball:

And we visited the final resting place of the beautiful and brilliant person after whom you are named, my cousin Eva:

And you loved and explored the area:

Love you,

Mama
