A trip to Iowa!

Our little traveling girl has once again proven how good she is! What a joy she was to have along. Laurie and Caroline made the two day trek to Iowa with Grandma & Grandpa Ward in tow. Jill joined Wendy & family and joined us the following day. We enjoyed visiting with relatives and seeing Grandma Ankerstjerne. Our visit was bittersweet as we lost Uncle Baxter on July 4th. It was an emotional and long week. I know I'm glad to be back home for awhile. Here are some highlights from our visit.

Grandma Ankerstjerne with her Ohio girls! She's 96!
Here's a picture of the whole crew! Caroline enjoyed meeting her Great Grandma as much as Grandma enjoyed meeting her! Caroline is exploring her face here.
The next day Grandma wanted to hold her. It was so sweet to see them together.
Look at these three monkeys that rode the elevator on a luggage cart!
American Gothic? Someone was just the right size to pose!
Giggling at Grandma!
How about this American Gothic?
Gene & Kristy were our gracious hosts our first night. We always have a good time with them. We missed Rick not being along for the ride.
Gene helped fill in and enjoyed spoiling Caroline!

A kiss for Grandma! Love it!
