Labor Day in Des Moines

Cate made her first trip to Des Moines last weekend to visit Grandma Diane and to meet her two Great-Grandmothers and many Aunts, Uncles and Cousins.  On Friday, we had lunch with Great-Grandma Joyce and then dinner at Uncle Dennis and Aunt Nadia's house.  Cate did have something of a dinnertime meltdown there, but it had been a long day for her!  On Saturday we got to just hang out at Grandma Diane's house and go out for Mexican with Uncle Don and Aunt Lori.  We all sort of ate in shifts because of course it was time for Cate to eat as soon as our food arrived.  On Sunday it was back to Pella to have a big family dinner at Great-Grandma Zee's house and in the evening, we had a Labor Day BBQ at Doug and Susan's new house.  On Monday we got our act together and got on the road to go and visit Auntie Jenn at IOWA and then stopped to visit our good friends, Jenny and Jason, and their THREE babies at their new home in DeWitt.  We didn't take nearly enough pictures of the weekend, but here are a few!
