A Visit to Iowa


Last week at this time we were enjoying a visit with our family in Iowa. The girls made it through the long trip very well. Better on the way out than on the way back; I think they may have been a little over tired on the way home. Dad had just started combining beans when we were out there so Jeff and Miya enjoyed helping with the harvest; riding in the tractors and the combine. Jayden thought its was great watching all of her cousins always running around. She has been a little fussy since we got home, I think she misses all of the action. Today Miya was outside helping Jeff and Jayden was in the house with me; nothing would make her happy. Once Miya came back in and played with her she was much happier. She just wants a kid around her. It was so good to see our family in Iowa again. All the little ones are growing so quickly, the married adults are busy buying acreages and starting their own farms, and the older kids are busy in school and college. It was so much fun watching all the cousins play with eachother and seeing their personalities. We miss so many of the little things living far away:( Hopefully we won't have to go that long without visiting Iowa again. I'm having a little trouble posting pictures...I forgot the memory card for my camara so I'm tyring to post pictures from e-mail and it doesn't seem to want to work. I'll keep trying.
