A wonderful weekend in Oakland

Last weekend, we drove to Oakland to visit. We arrived on Friday night and watched Carter explore Papa Lyle and Grandma Peggy's house. He was so funny-- running around and checking everything out. He loved looking through the kitchen windows and seeing the kitty on the porch and looking at the moon and stars. Wow, they are sure clear and bright in the country.

On Saturday morning we went into town to visit Grandma Bentley at the assisted living center. She was excited to see us! Carter went right to her and gave her hugs, he also grabbed her hand when we were walking to her room. He sure loves his Grandma Great!!

We were also lucky to see Aunt Penny, Uncle Mitch, Grandma Walker and cousin Allen. We enjoyed visiting and catching up. The guys left to go play yard golf at Penny and Mitch's. Lyle, got out the lawn mower and trimmed a tee box in their backyard for Andy to hit balls into the cornfields behind their house. A little different take on the driving range that we are used to!

Carter and I came home on Sunday morning and I went to Ames for a House Corporation Board meeting at Chi Omega. We finished the weekend with dinner at Papa John and Grammy Lesa's house.

Whew! Busy weekend. Carter began a new daycare on Monday. Hopefully this one will be a better fit for him. Big week! Cyclone football begins on Thursday! Go STATE!
