Last weekend we packed up the car and headed to Muscatine. And when I say packed I mean PACKED! Tom's car was filled to the brim with enough stuff to last us a month including a very irritated Pepper. She just couldn't understand why she had to be stuck in the very back of the Trailblazer instead of sitting in the front seat like usual. As soon as we got on the interstate Pepper decided she didn't belong in the way back and tried to jump over the seat right into James's carseat. Tom and I both yelled but it just scared her and then she was dangling between the seats shaking with fear. Finally I crawled into the backseat and gave her a push. After that eventful beginning the trip was really smooth. James slept the whole way which was a relief because he usually screams in his carseat and Pepper pouted in the back.
Once we got to Muscatine we had a really nice relaxing day. The weather was beautiful so we spent most of our time there sitting on the deck. Billie and Andy came over from Iowa City for the day so James got to play with his cousin Gillian. We got to see pictures from Julie's wedding in the Virgin Islands and it looked beautiful. We were very jealous! James slept really well Saturday night (must be all that fresh air) and after a huge pancake breakfast Sunday we headed back home.
Check out that sweatshirt! It felt more like fall than July.
James and Gillian with their Great Grandma.
Gillian didn't mind sharing her mom as long as she was the one holding James.
James got in trouble with his Grandma Ruden so she spanked his bottom.
