As a family who has grown quickly the past five years, your dad and I have tried to be sure we spend time with the two of you doing fun things while leaving the younger two home. The past couple of summers have included mini-trips to Des Moines to stay overnight, go swimming, mini-golf, visiting family, dinner out, and more! It's always fun to go on these little "vacations". We pack snacks for the car ride and try to be sure and do things that you will enjoy :)
