South Dakota

We went to South Dakota for the Fourth of July. We decided to make it a roadtrip and made stops in Yellowstone, Deadwood, Mt. Rushmore, and Wataga before making it to our final destination in Aberdeen South Dakota. All of John's siblings came and we meet up with John's mom's cousins to celebrate her uncle's birthday. John spent the majority of his summers growing up visiting his grandparents in Wataga so it was great to see the family farm and all of the places where his mom spent her childhood.
