I always enjoy family visits. Period. This weekend, my husband's mom and her husband came to visit. We had such a wonderful time and it was the best way to keep our minds off of IVF. As soon as our family arrived, we took them to the John Deere factory where Rob works. After the tour we enjoyed the Tulip Festival in Pella IA. Pella is a Dutch community and the Tulip festival celebrates Dutch traditions. We decided early on that if we were to embrace the traditions, a creme filled bismark was necessary! It was delicious. Here is a photo of my mother and father in-law on a Pella tour.
Unfortunately, I had to work on Saturday but my husband kept me posted on the fun I was missing. Here is a photo of Nancy and Bob dressed in front of the American Gothic House in Eldon IA. Aren't they adorable? I could have died when my husband showed me this photo.
After work, we made a nice dinner and for desert had Dutch Letters and made s'mores on a bonfire underneath the Supermoon.
Sunday morning we took a 2 minute break from our family to focus on IVF. It felt great to start the antibiotics finally!
Sunday we decided to bare the storms that were surrounding Ottumwa and golf 18 holes! Thankfully we had golf carts! Here is a photo of Nancy and Bob enjoying the great weather! Thankfully, the storms missed us!
And a photo of my sweet husband and me also enjoying the day.
It wasn't all glam, we DID actually golf 18 holes. Well? We spent most of our day searching for our balls in the deep brush and sand traps.
This morning was a sad goodbye. My mother in-law is known to get emotional while leaving us and today was that kind of morning. I hate saying goodbye to her and I cannot wait to see her again.
