To Grandmother's House We Go...



This past weekend our family of three hit the road and headed to Oelwein for a weekend with Grandma Leela and Papa Doug. Friday we spend the afternoon getting loved on by Aunt Apey and Grandma and Grandpa. We also played with all of our Christmas toys that we had left in Oelwein. Saturday we headed to Manchester, IA so that I could try on bridesmaid dresses for my best friend Kaly's wedding. I saw her in her dress and she looked AMAZING! It was so special being able to be back in Iowa and getting to help her a little with some wedding things. I seriously don't take a single second for granted while I am here for the next month. Once we got back Scott pointed out that New Moon was showing in the Starmont dollar theater. Ok I had wanted to see this movie since before it was even a movie! Unfortunately we didn't make it out to many movies thanks to Lyla and a busy football season. My parents were awesome and watched Lyla while Scott, Ape, and I went to see the movie. Of course I absolutely LOVED it and was sad when it was over. Thanks Mom and Dad for letting us get away and see a movie. The rest of the weekend was spent eating yummy food and AMAZING junk food, getting together with some of my parents friends who hadn't seen Lyla since she was a baby, a few late nights of competitive game play consisting of Yahtzee, Dominoes, What, and Sequence. I think I was the weekend champ however. Thanks Mom and Dad to an amazing weekend. It has been so awesome having you all so close. We really appreciate you clearing your weekends so that we can spend some time with you before we move. Ape and Isiah, thanks for playing with Lyla and giving Scott and I a break from parenting. You two will make adorable parents someday!
