July 4th and Extended Trip

We took a trip to Minneapolis for the Fourth of July. We celebrated Charlotte and America's birthday. We went to Charlotte's parade and Charlotte's fireworks. We stayed at the Empty Nesters house. It was awesome to spend time with our niece and nephew and hang out with Phil, Roxann, and her family. Here are some pics!


After the weekend my Aunt Heather picked me up in Des Moines and drove me to Iowa City. My grandpa had been in the ICU for a week in critical condition. After a week of practically living in the hospital and spending time with family, Grandpa finally got better and is now in a step-down unit recovering. Poor Jonathan. He had to go another week this summer without his wife and son.

I don't have any pictures, but we did spend time with Isaac's cousin Jacob and had fun memories with other cousins and family.
