Galena Weekend

Nick and I always try to get to Galena every year to celebrate our anniversary. This year, we went a bit earlier than usual so we had to adjust our plans a little! We spent Saturday in Galena and then went back to Bettendorf to spend the night at the Isle! It was lots of fun... even though we still don't have any good luck when it comes to gambling... It was nice to get away and enjoy the day and night to ourselves!

Nick pours us some champagne... yummy...



We went back to my parents' house on Sunday to see what the boys had been up to...

They love Gramps' remote control tractors! Well, at least Conner does... Ben gets a little scared when they get too close to him! Here, Daddy tries to help Ben run the controls. Shortly after this, Ben ran up onto the deck and sat with Nana...

Ben ventured out again when the green tractor made an appearance!


Great weekend for us all! Thanks Nana and Gramps!
