Iowa

Well this past weekend we made our first trip to Iowa with Aiden, it was great. John and Sara (Josh's cousin and his wife) were home from Japan for a couple of weeks, so we had a picnic with the Bos clan on Sat. The park was muddy so the kids really couldn't play, but everyone had a great time.

Jim decided that it was to far of a walk to the shelter and decided to drive up. He got about half way before he got stuck in the mud, so Frank came to the resuce in his Hummer and pulled Jim back to solid ground.

After the picnic, we went to visit the newest Gabby. She is 3 weeks old, adorable and a chunker compared to Aiden. She was peacefully sleeping until I could not resist picking her up. She was in the cutest strawberry outfit.

On Sunday, we went to visit Uncle Larry. While there, we spent some time with Thad and Beth, Uncle Ron, Terry, Mike, and Emily. It had been a couple of months since we seen everyone and I can't wait to meet the next Shumaker in the fall. Our families are just growing by leaps and bounds.
