Iowa Vacation (Part 6)

In which, it is Friday.

We ate breakfast and flew out on this day.  Not much to say except that Steve and Sue joined Chris, Katie, Ellie, Matt, Grace and I for one last breakfast during this vacation.  The flight was fairly uneventful.  So I will get on to the other reason for the post....non-day-specific activities :)

 Grace and Ellie loved the toys that were available to them at Steve and Sue's.  They had Duplos, wood puzzles, and cats to name a few items :)
 But the best was when Grandma Sue got down on the floor to play with the girls.
 Some days it is just a two pacifier day!
 Grace, shoes go on your feet...not your hands!
 Laser lights, hours of entertainment for cats, children, and adults alike.
 Grace attempted many times to put Ellie's socks and shoes on her feet.  Only a few times did she succeed.
 Grace loved to feed Ellie.  The trick to this game was she would let Ellie have one tiny bite of the cracker, then she would eat the rest of it.  She chased Ellie around the house trying to feed her that one bite.
 My beautiful little girl.
 One night we went bowling.  It was fun to play, and to chase the girls around the alley.
Grace loved to touch the balls.  Fortunately they were too heavy for her to pick up or do anything with.
It was a fun vacation.  I am glad that we all got to spend a week together and make these memories!

Just a few thoughts:
1.Sounds like a great trip.

2. She is a beautiful girl (I'm a bit biased, though)

3. I agree! Some days are 2 pacifier days! Would Grace share? :)
