Iowa-Part I
To celebrate my grandma's 90th birthday, we headed out to Iowa for a long weekend. My mom, dad, Drew, and I drove out while Grant flew out later. Just to fill you in, my grandma lives in a town of less than 700 people. So, we celebrated her birthday with family and her close friends at the Senior Center "downtown," which consists of a post office, library, restaurant (which is closing), and saloon (as my mother calls it). Lots of time was spent with aunts, uncles, cousins, and kids of cousins.

4th of July
Every year our neighborhood has a 4th of July parade where neighbors walk their dogs and push/pull/carry their babies and watch their kids ride/skate/walk. The streets are closed down to traffic and we make a big loop and end up at the neighborhood school for snacks and games. This year, we walked it with our friends Jenn and Matt.

Drew's Baptism Part II
Following the ceremony, we had lunch at our house. We turned our backyard into a little cafe and had over 60 people at our house!
Drew's Baptism Part I
On July 3rd, we had Drew baptized. It was a wonderful day. David and Amy are Drew's sponsors, and they were supposed to be here, but Amy was recently diagonosed with thyroid cancer. Plese pray for her and David during this time.
