Trip to Iowa Day Five




Ah it is Sunday...we are pretty lazy today...and the sun has come out! We kind of piddle about in the morning then plan our Waffle Breakfast...this is tradition for us...we eat outside...there is lots of bacon...and we have waffles. Lori and Denny get to eat with us...and we start getting the food ready about noon...so when mom and dad get back from church, they can join in as well. Tim and I prepare the batter...two batches of regular and one gluten free mix. We get the bacon going...juice, all of the toppings, maple syrup, strawberry sauce, whipped cream and chocolate chips...all yummy stuff. We set up a long table outside and while Tim and I make food, everyone eats...it is great fun! The Gluten Free isn't bad at all!

Then we line up for a family portrait in the yard...set up a self timer and get a few great shots of the family!

The rest of the afternoon is just sitting around and visiting...watching a movie (NEW IN TOWN), and finally thinking about dinner...Tim and I head to Atlantic for some supplies...and we order pizza from Pizza Hut...by the time we return everyone has eaten...so we eat with Grandma and Mom and talk about the day and the vacation...

The Volleyball net gets set up in the front yard and while Grandma, Mom, Lynn and I sing and play, the game starts, the OTHERS (Anne, Tim, Jake) vs HAYS (Ted, Tom, Tyler). Grandpa acts as ref...and later Lynn and I jump in to play as well...it is great fun!
