I got to spend a few days back in Iowa before I have to head back to Peoria with the kids, so I spent them with my mom and sister. Addie and Harry just love spending time with their cousins Bo and Brock and they all love spending time with Grandma and Grandpa. Today they all got a bit anxious and really pushed Grandpa to get to sit up in his little tractor. No rides in the tractor today but plenty of rides in Grandpa Jeff's buggy to see the new land my mom and dad just acquired. It's absolutely amazing...loaded with trees that just keep going and going. If we could build a house there I would in a heart because because it's just perfect, but sadly enough CAT doesn't have any engineering facilities around and it would be a 400 mile round trip commute for Kevin.
Bo was horribly sad on the day we left from playing at my sister's house. He's finally getting old enough to know what's going on, but we tried re-assuring him that we lived back in America now and that we would be back more to see him. He just kept saying that he "loved his sister Addison" and "didn't want her to leave". How sweet! It will be very nice to be much closer to our family and actually call them up and be in the same time zone...still trying to get my head around that one.
