We had such a good weekend that it might take us the whole week to recover. Our family of four took off for Cedar Falls after Paul got off work on Friday. We made it into town late but got in some good happy hour food and drinks and some Boeke family time. Saturday morning Charlie had her 6 month pictures taken by At Play Photo. Darcy is an awesome photographer, and I can't wait to see what she comes up with this time. Aferwards, Paul, Charlie and I met Great Aunt Barb at Panera for some smoothies. It was nice to catch up.
The rest of the day was spent hanging out and getting ready for Paul and Scott's 30th birthday party. Despite the rain we had a good turnout. It is so nice to be able to see everyone in one weekend. We had some of the Broadlawns crew, CF friends, family, and family friends.
On Sunday we got to have lunch at the Dowd's house with Grandma and Grandpa Dowd, Aunt MoMo and Neil. They just completely redecorated the kitchen, dining room, and bathroom and it looks amazing! It is hard to leave Cedar Falls knowing we are on our own again. It is nice to have help! Charlie is getting harder to entertain for the 5 hour card ride in her car seat. Luckily she was off her schedule enough to sleep most of the way home. By the time we got back to Columbia we were all completely worn out and Charlie had a brand new wardrobe for fall.
