A few snapshots from my trip to Iowa this weekend for our youngest nephews’ birthday party!

[Friday] The photo I sent Steven when he asked if the roads were clear. Clear roads and bright blue sky! Very windy through Wisconsin though – 29 mph winds gusting 34 when I checked. It became calmer in Iowa.
Val sent me a Starbucks gift card for the trip. Thanks Val!
It felt so warm out – in the mid 40s! I ran and Dad biked with me to school pickup.
Enchiladas for dinner. I brought some Plant Basics (Steven’s brand!) spices with me to use and film (for social media) then my hands had so much enchilada sauce on them I forgot to film the actual assembly. Oops.
[Saturday] We went to The Nook Saturday because I wanted to support them and get something off my Libby hold list (I got books for the kids too). I’m not a book collector so that book will be passed on to someone or a Little Free Library when I finish reading it.
Both places we stopped that morning – The Nook and ICON Donuts – had a rock of mine on display!
Playing with the kids while Christina (my snis) did party prep
With my siblings at the pool party (From L to R: Nick (oldest), Alyssa (his wife), Anthony (younger than me), me, Christina (youngest)).
With some of our nephews and niece at the after party at the house
[Sunday] The presents we got our nephews for their birthdays
The gift we got Leo was called Magic Water Elf and made these little squishy figures. They were fun to make!
Goodbyes!
