so we decided to squeeze as much fun out of them as we could!
Dave and I loaded the girls up and headed to Adventureland for the day!
We had a great time together and really enjoyed having 3 kids all old
enough to ride the rides! For the first time in 8+ years, no one had to
"stay behind with the baby". Of course, after about the 5th spinning,

Just a few days later, Grammy and I took the girls to the Iowa State Fair.
We had a great time riding the city bus from the Capital to the Fairgrounds,
seeing all the animals, eating, riding the sky-ride, eating, playing in the
butterfly garden, eating, farming on Little Hands on the Farm, eating,
riding the camel and horse and eating.
After only 9 hot and sticky hours, we were on the bus on our way back to
the car!
We hope everyone had a great summer, full of love, laughter, and food! : )
