Drive In

This past weekend we met up with some of the folks from our Jeep Club the Mississippi Valley Jeep Club to take in a couple of flicks at the drive in theater. This was a first for our kids, full of questions and excitement. The movies we saw were Mr. Poppers Penguins and Cars 2. Two movies for the price of one and actually it is cheaper then most of your local theaters. And you cant go to a movie without getting popcorn, a great deal here only $5 for a large tub!

It can make for a long night after two movies and an hour and half drive home we reached home around 2 AM. The kids of course slept on the way home, wind blowing and all because we had left the sides of the top at home.

Summer, friends, new experience definitely worth the drive and the time. Something we will do again!

Andrea

Andrea or known to most as Annie, is the organizer of our family. Without her we would never keep anything straight. Annie is starting a new career as a Lia Sophia advisor and also makes vinyl signs and decals and works for Dave's Complete Construction, Inc part time. Annie also volunteers as Secretary of the Snow Pioneers, secretary and treasurer of the Mississippi Valley Jeep Club, secretary of the Iowa State Snowmobile Association, and helps out with Isabelle's girl scout troop. When not working, volunteering or being the go to person for our family, she loves to cook and bake, often making things from scratch. She is a crafter of all sorts and loves to garden. Friends often stop by just to see what new thing she has made in the kitchen.

Isabelle

Isabelle is currently 11 years old and entering the 6th grade. Though it seems like she is 16 most days. She loves music, and crafting. You will often find her making a something new with duct tape, listening to the radio up in her room. Growing up way to fast in her parents eyes, she is beginning to mature and helps out at home doing the dishes and picking up. As most girls she loves to change outfits and is always interested in great accessories, but when everyone isn't looking you will find her out in the garage with her dad helping him on his latest project. As the rest of the family she loves to go Jeeping and snowmobiling.
