Evelyn's EL Trip Around The Loop

What a way to spend a rainy day....
We enjoyed a nice train ride around the loop with a stop at the Merchandise Mart McDonald's for lunch. Great way for Ev to see the city - and for mom to kill a few hours when we are trapped inside!
As you can see from the photo below - Evelyn was decked out in her new Paul Frank rain wear. She just loved walking with an umbrella!

Iowa State Fair

We had a great time again this year at the Iowa State Fair. Friday night the adults headed to East Side Night to reunite with old pals. Then Matt and I took the girls to enjoy the animals, food and rides.

Back To Des Moines

We spent a week back in Des Moines this August to visit friends and family - and of course, hit the Iowa State Fair! We had fun swimming, shopping and riding around on Evelyn's new John Deer Tractor (and Kate tried taking it for a spin too).

Lake Carroll

We went to Lake Carroll with the Fitzpatrick's for some much needed R & R. Mimi and Kate were great babies and Evelyn and Fiona had lot's of fun swimming and fishing off the dock.
