surprising terra

before our recent trip home we picked up a new little toy. this little toy allows us to take video and share it with you all. just what we need, right?

a lot of people knew we were making a trip back to iowa during a week off of school. my sister terra, was not one of them. it was killing me to not talk about it with her and could very well be the longest i’ve ever kept a secret.

needless to say she was extremely surprised to see us. it was great to be able to spend a couple of days with them and everyone else we were able to drop in and see. sometimes you just don’t know how much you love a place until you leave it.

overall, our trip back was great. deeann was able to go two days before me and be with her family, then i tagged along for the start of the weekend. then we stayed with our good friends ren & rebecca in the iowa city area. and after a few days there, dove even further east to davenport and the quad cities to see my parents, jax, and taylor. taylor is so happy with my parents, hopefully they are able to say the same for her. she’s playing fetch every day, hanging out in the yard, going for walks; what more could she ask for?
