Iowa fun

Because of our construction mess, we weren't able to make it to Iowa to celebrate our niece Abby's bday in February and the Landwehrs weren't able to make it in May to our house.  So we decided to get together this summer for some fun.  The girls love going down and exploring the creek in winter but got a different kind of adventure in the summer.  They still had fun didn't matter the season.  Mike had a few "cobra" fireworks (these little black nuggets that grow into a snake like thing after you light them up) and sparklers for the kids to enjoy.  Sharon got a pinata which is always filled with the best treats.  The pinata is almost as fun as the creek adventure.  In the evening we watched an awesome firefly show in the fields behind their home. The next day we went to a water park that was so fun!  The kids had a great time.  Even though there were a ton of people you didn't feel like people were on top of you.  Caitlin ended up getting really bad stomach cramps which we thought was from this one waterslide that has a 5ft drop off at the end but found out later that it was a stomach bug and ended up going thru our family-Rachel and I, the tough girls didn't get it!  We had an awesome time in Iowa!!
