Iowa Wedding

This past weekend we headed to Des Moines for Ryan's cousin's wedding.  The kids stayed at my parents house so it was another date weekend :)  We stopped at Great Plains Pizza on our way down -- that pizza is some of the best!  Wish it was closer to home.  The wedding was in a barn which was really cool....cozy and intimate.  It was so fun as all of Ryan's brothers and wives/significant others were there!  We had a great time and were equally as excited to get on the road Sunday morning to see the kids.  The kids had a blast in Otown with Nana & Papa!  Raking leaves, eating donuts, reading books, going to the library and of course lots of treats!  Nothing beats the hugs and kisses from the kids after being away, even for just a night or two!  They are our world and I honestly can't remember or imagine life before those two sweethearts!

Emily and all her girls!
She has been waiting so patiently and it's so fun that there are 5 of us now!!

Raking leaves or in Madelyn's case being buried in leaves!
Such fun!
