one last trip

Life is never dull in the J mom house.  We were once again uprooted the first week of August to drive to see family, this time in Nebraska.  The drive went rather well considering there was a baby in the car and a four year old.  However we left our doorstep at 6 am and did not arrive to our NE destination until 6:30 pm that evening.  That is a LONG day of traveling, even considering the stops and breaks along the way!

Our time was spent mostly hiding from the outrageous NE heat.  (Not that us Minnesotans don't know what that feels like lately.)  Little E and I enjoyed the air conditioning at home while Seth and Jason ventured out the most.  Our favorite spot to venture out to was of course the pool!  Everyone got some sun regardless of the layers of sunscreen but it did feel invigorating to get wet and play in the water.

The Great Grands and Grands!
Little E amazed at his first sight of the farm. 

Our little Jumping Bean thought this was great!

 On our way home we stopped to see our friends the Smiths.  It was so fun to see them prepare for the little girl they are expecting this winter.  Pink and ruffles, now there are things you do not find in the J mom home.  I have to say it was fun! 

Our upcoming adventures include camping and of course, back to preschool.  Stay tuned...
