Then and Now

Isaac's preschool class. Taken May 2010.

(LtoR) Isaac, Chase, Alec, Harrison, and Carter. 


All 5 boys a year later (May 2011) at a reunion bbq. I love absolutely everything about his photo and think Chrissy should win an award for capturing each of the boy's personalities so well.These boys and their families are a few of the many things we miss most about Iowa.
I have been trying to come up with a post about my love for the Midwest  for a month now, an "ode to Iowa" if you will. Every time I think about Des Moines it just makes my heart happy. I really can't find the words to do justice to the place we called home for 3 1/2 years. I will just say this: I am grateful for our time there and even more grateful for the people that we met along the way. They really became our Iowa family.
