Visited Analise at UNI last Sunday. It was fun to meet her roomie Breanna - she is super-sweet! Went to lunch with Analise, Justin and Taylor - fun to visit with them!

No new news about Analise's Cyclic Vomiting Syndrome. Her endoscopy didn't give her doctor any answers. She took some biopsies from her esophagus but we haven't heard anything. She had an infection in her esophagus again so her doctor suggested she meet with an immunologist. That appointment is this coming Tuesday. Who knows what will happen! She is still throwing up every week. She hasn't missed any classes at college because of it but when I talked to her this morning she was sick again. Aaarrrgghhhh!

Yesterday we had a 50th anniversary party for Tim's parents in Sigourney. I think everyone enjoyed it. There was a nice turnout of their family and friends.

Lazy Labor Day weekend in Iowa

Labor Day weekend - not much going on. Tim and Taylor went to the Hawkeyes football game Saturday, the Hawks won and the guys had a good time. Go Hawks! Analise is home from college for the weekend which is nice. She's only been gone two weeks but it's fun to chat and hang out with her. I've been in a funk for a few weeks and can't seem to shake it off. Not important though. Missing family - stuff like that. My good friend Betsy and her family are away for the weekend and my kids and I have been enjoying checking on their Visla puppies - they are SOOOO cute! Betsy's yard is so peaceful and quiet. I'm going to post a few pics. I haven't taken any of the puppies yet - there are 10! Maybe tomorrow.
