We got up this morning and went back to the baseball field. Older Nephew J and Younger Nephew J both had games this morning and the boys wanted to watch before we left for home.

Older Nephew J won his game again and Younger Nephew J lost. We said our good-byes. I always hate that Middle Sister and her family live so far away. I miss her and hanging out with her. We don't get to do it nearly often enough.

On the way home we needed a break from driving so we took a tour of the University of Iowa. We took pictures in front of the Old Capitol and also Kinnick Stadium. Since the bookstore wasn't open we had to stop at the mall to get Hawkeye t-shirts.

I am so proud of the boys for the way they traveled. It was far better than I could have imagined it would go. They kept themselves occupied and didn't fight. They didn't even ask "are we there yet"!! They were always concerned about what state we were in and wanted to be sure I didn't forget to tell them when we were crossing state lines.

It is good to be home.

Praises for:

The boys behavior the entire weekend.
Middle Sister and her family making all of us feel welcome.
Patient cousins.
Safe travel.

Prayers for:

Adjusting to our summer schedule.
Healing for Middle Sister's feet. She had surgery on both and is in a walking boot until August.
