Road Trip

Our life has been pretty quiet the past month or so, which is why I've not posted anything.  The last week was pretty busy for us, so I finally have something new to blog about. :-)

Eric and I started out on a road trip last week, driving from SE Michigan to NW Iowa.  The normally 13 hour drive took us 3 days due to several planned (and fun) detours.  The drive was not bad (especially since I got to be a passenger the entire time...thanks Eric!).  We spent our first night in Ottawa, IL...just west of Chicago.  Not much of a town, but a nice hotel and a Cracker Barrel restaurant just off the interstate was perfect.

The first planned detour was to stop in Des Moines, IA to visit a great friend and her family...Amy, Clint, Taya, and Haylen Jensen.  It was my first time meeting Amy's twin girls, who just turned 1 on November 17...they are simply adorable!  Amy & Clint definately have their hands full. :-)  It was great seeing you Aim!!
