This weekend, we drove up to Storm Lake, IA to see Jenn graduate. I made the same trip 6 years ago, when I graduated so it was kind of neat. When I made the trip, I had had Colby 9 days earlier, what an experience. We stopped in Des Moines and shopped at the Jordan Creek Mall, it was a neat mall. Vance and I had some wine at a shop at the mall. That was a nice, quiet 20 minutes. Then we went on to Fort Dodge, where we stayed in a hotel that had seen it's prime in 1975. There was carpet on the walls! We went to eat at Applebees and then went swimming.
Sunday dawned kind of nauseously, is that a word?, I thought I had too much of a good thing with wine, margaritas, cheesecake, etc. We went and had brunch and then headed to graduation. Afterwards, I could tell that things were not going to be good for me. Yep, I had the flu. I threw up on the way home and had chills. YUCK! It sure was a long drive home. Glad to have that milestone out of the way, now on to the next one...
Our family...perfect for us!
