Visit from Aunt Nancy
My Aunt Nancy, who lives in Indianapolis, stopped by for lunch today. She was visiting my cousin in Kansas City and made the drive up to Des Moines. We had a nice lunch and she took a few minutes afterward to play on the trampoline with Rose.

Mar-Mar & Be-Bob came to visit this weekend. They made it in time for one of Andrew’s track meets and some soccer games this weekend. On Friday I took the day off and we went to Pella Tulip Time with Lucia and Rose.

A couple of Susan’s friends from college came to visit the for a couple of days. Jen Valorose and her boys came down from Minneapolis and Sarah Olson-Smith came with her kids, from Davenport.
