Our 4th of July trip home to Iowa was a great time. We went to Uncle Nick and Aunt Courtney's first. Colton was up close and personal with both Hunk & Deuce and he was all smiles the entire time. Austin spent a considerable amount of time in Hunk & Deuce's pool in the back yard. Friday Aunt Courtney and I took the boys to the splash park in Ankeny. They both had a lot of fun and were extremely worn out when we headed home to eat lunch. We went to Emmetsburg Friday and spent Saturday morning on a boat. This was Austin's first boating experience but he had no fear of the water. He jumped in and out of the boat about 20 times. He loved swimming in the lake. After the boat ride from Lundgren we headed to the beach and met up with Uncle Nate and Tacee. We spent over two hours at the beach on Saturday afternoon. Sunday we went to Fort Dodge. Austin held a sparkler for the very first time. He thought it was pretty neat and didn't have any problem running around with Kelsey and showing everyone his sparkler. It was making Brian and I nervous because he wasn't worried about letting the sparkler burn down to his fingers. Annie and Papa had a jeep for Austin to drive around their yard. This was also super fun but Austin couldn't figure out how to steer so we did spend quite a bit of time making sure he wouldn't run into anything and getting him "unstuck" on several occasions. We also celebrated Daddy and GG Sally's birthdays together. Austin and Daddy blew out the candles 4 or 5 times!! It was a great trip home and the car ride went well again. Both boys were happy to be home as they were both tired of travelling and slept great last night!!
