Mmmm.....bacon

We got home today from a fun weekend with the rest of the Franz family at the Great Wolf Lodge in Wisconsin Dells where Harrison had his first experience with swimming. Or as his cousin Ben calls it, thwimming.



Harrison had a pretty good time...we guess. He didn't dislike swimming, but he didn't seem enthralled by the whole experience. He pretty much sat in the lap of whomever he was with at the moment and looked around with a blank look on his face. Even if he didn't look overly excited he looked like an old pro with his cute little swim diaper and swimsuit.




While we were in the Dells we went out for our yearly birthday dinner, courtesy of Grandma Kathy and Grandpa Pete. This year we went to the Moosejaw Pizza and Dells Brewing Co. The food was "meh," but the beer was delicious.

Inspired by a recent article in Time, Craig decided to make chocolate covered bacon for a snack. What follows is a pictorial essay on the process.

Everyone seemed to enjoy it, although Uncle Alejandro said he felt like he shouldn't enjoy it.

Now to wrap up the post, here's a gaggle of random photos from our trip. Enjoy!
