Iowa...a little slice of Heaven:)

We sure are gonna miss this place...we had such a great time in Iowa this summer...it was very hard to say good bye to everyone last week....we are missing everyone like crazy and it has been a pretty lonely week here in Florida. (esp. since I have been alone at home with the boys with no car and no cable..not to mention Sam decided to break the DVD player mid morning today!!)

We are so greatful to everyone for helping us out this summer while Eric was gone...we definately could not have made it through it without everyone back home! It was so nice being so close to family and having the chance to move back in with my parents for a few months....mom I really miss you doing my laundry and fixing my meals...it really sucks having to do this again:) Oh and mot to mention getting up with Jack at the crack of dawn each morning...man 5'oclock comes around early and I really miss walking up the stairs half asleep and handing him off to you then turning around and heading back down the stairs to go back to bed!! Oh how I miss the freshly baked cookies you always had on the counter....and I could go on like this forever but I think I might start crying if I keep thinking about it:) Dad you sure were a trooper through all this...you were such a great help with the boys...Sam sure does miss his buddy...thank you for teaching him how to say "go hawkeyes" (his daddy appreciates this one), Sam always looked forward to you coming in the house every night so you guys could have your "cokes", look for deer and play outside; and I thank you for always keeping the fridge stocked with Miller Lite...couldn't have made it through the summer without you:) Thank you for everything....we miss you guys like crazy and will never forget the great times we had living with you guys this summer...Give Zoey our love and tell her to enjoy 3 yrs of peace and quiet...

Thanks to all my wonderful sisters for visiting us lots and keeping us entertained...Erin I really enjoyed coming into town and going on walks every morning..Sam sure is gonna miss your trampoline:) Dr. Aimee you were all life saver all summer long...probably wouldn't have survived the summer without you and your expertise - thank you thank you thank you...Sam sure loved playing trains with his Aunt Aimee...Kensie was such a great babysitter probably won't ever find one as good as her...There isn't a morning that goes by that Sam doesn't ask for "Aimee". Sambo is gonna miss you guys sooooo much! Emilee thanks so much for loaning me your girls to come play with Sam - he had so much fun with them!

G-ma and G-pa thank you for all your help this summer watching the boys while I worked out and for taking us to lunch all the time! I will never forget the day I spent and hour working out and I get to your house to pick up the boys and there you are meeting me at the door with a piece of peach pie and homemade ice cream...:) Miss you guys.

Sara and Nolan thanks for all the play dates - we sure do miss you guys....

G-ma and G-pa Kline...thank you so much for everything you did for us this summer....you guys were always there for us when we needed you...We really appreciate everything!!!! G-pa Dick I am sure you miss Sam spilling his popcorn all over your office floor every morning and eating all your suckers and leaving them half eaten:) Sam sure does miss coming to your house and playing the piano and driving the car around. Poor Maggie probably misses Sam and all the treats he gives her:) Thanks isn't enough for all that you guys have done for us...

Brotherly Love...
They really do love eachother...Jack follows Sam everywhere..it is pretty sweet:)

Our little Monkey...he is climbing on everything...he is quite the little dare devil!
It is soooo nice having my sweetie home....
