Time with Family

We were blessed to be able to spend some time visiting Jeff's family in Iowa this past week. The long weekend away seemed to go way too quickly. It was a busy weekend even though there weren't a lot of things planned. The guys enjoyed golfing, some fishing, and even playing some baseball. The ladies were able to have a couple hours away from the kids to enjoy a trip to the bakery and some shopping at Maurices. And the kids...play, play, play. Miya and Jayden had sooo much fun playing with all of their cousins. The played outside on the bikes, mini pool, and slip-n-slide. Inside they made necklaces and birthday cakes. Played pretend babies and house and of course thought it was great playing in Aunt Janelle's room with all of her "very cool" stuff (sorry Janelle). Even Melanie and baby Whitney enjoyed playing with each other. Being around a large family is so much fun. There's always food to prepare and kids to re-direct, but the memories made are priceless. Thanks to our Iowa family for taking the time away from you're busy lives to make some family memories. We love you all and miss you already.
