MOM'S VACATION TO IOWA






Well here I am on vacation in Iowa visiting Jacob and Kelly and of course the darling boys, Austin and Chase. It has been a great few days and only 3 days left. It is going by way too fast. It is nice to have no snow since I left home with about a foot still on the ground in the yard. It was a beautiful day here, about 50 degrees with the sun shining. I was able to go on a tour of Jacob's school this morning. It is an awesome school, very modern, just really nice. It was great because you can go from building to building through tunnels, never having to go outside. It looks like a great school. We came home and ate lunch and then took Austin for a little bike ride while Chase was taking his nap. After Chase woke up we went to the zoo. A lot of the animals weren't out yet, but it was fun seeing the ones that were. It is a really nice zoo. We then drove around and did some site seeing, beautiful parks, I would love to be here in the summer, there are so many trees (not the kind at home) and I bet it is awesome in the summer. We took the kids to a play area in a huge new mall (sound familiar Michele). That was fun and I am going to try and send some pictures . Anyway, tomorrow we are going to go on a "tourist" trip, so I am excited about that. The only good thing about you kids living so far away is me getting to go visit!!!

I hope all of you will set up a blog and contribute. I think it will be really fun, we'll see what happens. I miss all of you and wish that I could just travel and spend a week at a time with each of you. (What would you think of that Jon??) Just kidding.

This is a very fun idea. I like reading about all the goings on in your family. Thanks for sending your blogs spot address to me. I'll see what I can do about getting our family up to speed in cyberworld:) Chase and Austin are too cute. Sounds like Josh is quite an athlete and musician. Keep the news coming!Love you all, Aunt Deb
