Megan, Andy and the kids drove here Friday night from Peoria and Matt arrived about the same time from Omaha. We had a fun few days! Saturday Matt and Andy golfed at Honey Creek near The Ledges. Megan and I took Kayley to a baby shower for Karen Swanson hosted at Barb Peterson's home. It was fun to see everyone there. Grandpa and Drew stayed at the farm and played. Saturday evening we grilled steaks and had good old Iowa sweet corn. Delicious despite the field being attacked by raccoons a few days earlier. Mark always puts up electric fence to keep those critters at bay but all the storms left debris on the wire, shorting it out and the coons made hay in no time. Have I ever mentioned how much I despise raccoons? It is up and running again so hopefully no more damage from them!
Kevin and Julie and Dan and Katie stopped down for a bit last night, too. Was fun to see them.
Drew played all week-end on the peddle tractor that has seen a few generations on its seat! Everyone left this afternoon after Megan, Andy and Mark returned from golfing at Don Williams today. I fixed a brunch and they left shortly after that. It is really quiet here once again. :-(
We had WAY too much rain lately but this week-end stayed dry. Hope that trend contines!
