The boys and I went to Iowa this past weekend to see my family. Amelia and Scott stayed home in Chicago to have a "date" weekend. Trust me, they had the best time. American Girl Store, Valentine's party at school and Joseph and the Amazing Dream Coat play....
My dad drives a bus for a retirement community. Scotty loved it!
Macky got to take a long bath all by himself. 
The reason for my trip was to see my dad be inducted into the Washington Hall of Fame. (My old high school) Junie loved cousin Hank.
There's Papa Gary waving!
Aunt Karoline and little Lucia Louise.
Sisters and I +Haddie.
Oh, it's my Junie and we all know he's been thought a lot! No need to get upset with him.
The whole group.
I got Junie new wrestling men at a second hand store and he loves them.
They attached a cat.
He has names for all of them. This is Daddy. Duh, you already knew that, right?
My dad got pretty into it too.
We had a great weekend. Thanks guys!
And on a totally different note, we bought this house. We signed the papers Friday and we're really thankful to have found a nice house for our family. It even has a basement and it's about a 3 minute drive to church. Thank you God!

That bus is wicked. I love the wrestlers and the pic of Junie's face in the drawing on the tablecloth pic...hilarious.
Wow Scott is looking pretty fit in those animal print undies. I have torn feelings about the house. I am happy for you but sad for me. The house makes it official that you are staying!
I had so many comments, but I will just ditto Jen and save time for another blog. :)
