"We'd venture off to exciting destinations like...Milwaukee"

Even though we all knew Emma and Nick were going to be in Wisconsin, it didn't really click with any of us until the day before they were leaving that we are only a few hours from Wisconsin (duh). So, we thought we'd try to meet in Madison and hang out for a bit. Then Emma called me back while they were waiting on their layover and told us that we should just come all the way to Milwaukee and stay the night. We'd have more time to hangout and Nicks grandpa could take us flying (as he is a pilot). So I hastily got everyone showered, dressed, fed, packed and in the car. Kurt was so tired of being on the "fast road," Luke basically cried the whole way there and we had an hour detour for 300 feet of closed road before the bridge over the Mississippi, but we finally made it.
Kurt got to play with Charlee, which he's been dying to do lately
Charlee was reuinted with her favorite cousin and proceeded to shower him with kisses (again)
and we got to meet Colt

Kurt really wanted to make him smile/laugh
We also went for a quick dip in the pool. I say quick because the water was freezing! And it took a long time, but we were able to get Kurt to "swim" with us. He always tells us he wants to go swimming, but he was so afraid. The water temp probably didn't help much either though
