More Iowa pics!


 While we were in Iowa last weekend, the boys helped Grandpa get rid of the leaves on the roof and ground!  I think Luke liked using the machinery! Even at 91, Grandpa was out there raking and being productive!! What a blessing!

 

 Here was the salad buffet at Gma's house...pick your toppings and dressing!
 YUM!  Steak, baked potato and salad....do you see the grapes in the salad?? Ewwww.  Silly John!


The birthday cake!
 


 Here we are at church with Gramma Ellie in her choir robe!  What a beautiful and fun weekend!!
 Goodbye "H" bridge!  See you next time!

Friends for 22 years!

We started out as a playgroup at the YMCA when our kids were infants!  22 years later, many of the kiddoes have graduated from college and we're still getting together!

Just a little make up

As a part of Anna's birthday present, I promised her a make up lesson at our Macy's store.  She chose the Bobbi Brown make up counter.  After her lesson we walked the mall, picked up a Starbucks drink and headed home.  Her brothers were NOT happy about the make up!

Golf!

John took Friday off from work and headed north to play golf.  It was a gorgeous day on a gorgeous course!  And check out the sheep on the course!
