Iowa Vacation

My immediate family met for a few days in Iowa to spend some time together. Caleb and Christina were able to come in from MN, and Rebecca and Adam left for KS immediately afterward, but we all had a great time together as a family.

The hotel had a nice patio area where we were able to grill out.

It also had a pool, so we spent loads of time there. Madeline found out the hard way that she still needs a floatie, but she bounced back quickly.

We saw a little of the city...

Took a riverboat ride...

Hiked in what we decided was one of our most favorite state parks ever.

Played with sparklers... (No pictures of Olivia because she got a pretty bad burn. She was a tough cookie, too.)

Then watched a fireworks display.

All in all, it was an awesome trip!
