I really wish they would have called it "The SuperCity." Why my affection for the five cities labeled "Quad Cities?" The
people! Specifically, our amazing families! Katie and I had a wonderful visit this past Labor Day weekend with our families. We arrived Saturday and enjoyed some Hungry Hobo while admiring Dave's new Nintendo Wii. After a late-night schooling by Dave in a "skins" match on Tiger Woods 10, I headed off to bed for a full Sunday. The next morning came with a beautiful morning run, and then the McGraws enjoyed some time at the Rock Island Postal Worker's picnic. The boys each got a prize (a Mr. Potato head and some classical singing character) and were able to crawl around during the beautiful day. Next, we spent some fantastic time at the Hughes' playing games and enjoying company. The boys enjoyed some more fresh air while cousin Kevin did a
fantastic time watching over them, pulling them up and down the driveway, giving them leaves to play with, and picking up the items they would consistently throw out of the wagon (a never ending game - as you can imagine).
The only downfall? A nasty head cold that successfully moved from Jameson to Joseph over the course of the three days. Curses!
None the less, we can't thank everyone enough - we are truly blessed beyond our means for those in our lives. We miss and love you all!
