Iowa

Grant & I took off for Iowa on Friday to a rough start of delayed flights & lots of extra time in the airport.  However, it was actually kind of fun getting to spend some time alone with my "baby" & the flying part went pretty smoothly.  Here he is being a ham during dinner at the airport in Atlanta. 
 Once in Iowa, he was passed off to Papa & Meme for a weekend of spoiling ; )
 
 Being silly in the camper on Saturday.
 His big brothers also loved this rocking horse when they were his age.
 
 Bathtime in the same tub his mama was bathed in!
 Thanks to Mom & Dad, Grant was being showered with attention & I spent my weekend laughing, reminiscing with old friends & waking up to the incredible peacefulness at the lake : )
 Our flight home was delayed, leaving us stranded for a night in Des Moines, but Grant was happy to get a few more hours with Papa & Meme.  Here he is giving one last big hug before they headed back to Mt. Ayr Sunday night.
We missed John & the big boys, but are pretty sure they had plenty of fun while we were gone.  They were both so proud to show me the front porch that they helped their Dad clean & to tell me about the fish they caught!
