Iowa State Fair!

This week was "Back to Reality" for me! To start the week we went to the pool to catch some rays! We were excited to see that the Garcias and Ottis' were there also! They boys had fun playing with their friends! Tuesday the older two were scheduled for haircuts. Mason woke up that morning with and kept telling me his throat hurt. I was hoping he wasn't getting sick, so decided to call and reschedule our appointments. Luckily it was short lived and the rest of the day he was fine. Wednesday morning Bryce and Zane had checkups. Bryce for his 6 month appointment, and Zane ahd a recheck for his hearing. Bryce's went well. He's a little over 18 pounds and doing great! Zane wasn't able to have his hearing checked as their machine wasn't working correctly. After the appointment we came home to get the boys packed for Grandma's house! We met Grandma in Maryville so the older two boys could stay with her for a few days as I returned to school Thursday!

It rained this week! I looked outside and saw this double rainbow!

I had my first two days of teacher work days Thursday and Friday. Bryce returned to Jo's and did very well! Friday we were going to head to the Iowa State Fair. However, Matt is extremely swamped at work and decided to stay late so he could get a little ahead due to our upcoming busy week! So instead we left on Saturday morning. The boys were already there with Grandma and Papa. Apparently they went down to the fair Friday and decided they didn't have much use for the fair...there were not toy tractors to buy and the real tractors were all locked so they couldn't climb on them. However...we got them down there again and they were lucky on Saturday...the tractors were unlocked!!!
