We road tripped to Des Moines this past weekend to visit Patrick's brother and sister-in-law, Jonathan & Candace, and to experience the world famous Iowa State Fair. We also met our brand new baby cousins, Graham and Micah for the first time. Such a fun weekend and Mila was an angel! She handled the car trip like a pro. Thank goodness for cartoons on the iPad. See our pictures and videos below!

| Mila and Max (Jonathan and Candace's nephew who turned 2 at the end of July)! |
 |
| Delicious dinner and Mila ate her first corn on the cob and exclaimed "SO GOOD." |
 |
Running in the sprinklers - don't end, Summer.
|
 |
| Ice cream followed by.... |
 |
| Joint bath...which Mila clearly did not enjoy. |
 |
Farmer's Market!
 |
 |
| Mila went on her first train ride at the Farmer's Market! I made the mistake of telling her it was "Thomas the Train" and she was NOT happy when this ride ended :) |
 |
| Mila did not like these people, but...WELCOME TO THE FAIR! |
 |
| Our group! Too bad we didn't get a picture of all the food we ate. Holy Moly. |
 |
Yes, we bought an inflatable Dora at the fair and yes, it was worth every penny. She carried her everywhere!
|
 |
| Mila got to go on her first ride! She LOVED it. Thanks, Aunt Candace! |
 |
| Small cookies compared to the slide though! |
 |
| Great memories. |
 |
| Mila + Uncle Jonathan |
 |
| After the Fair fun we got to meet sweet babies, Graham and Micah! |
 |
| Then this happened. |
 |
| And don't worry, Dora made the trip home :) |
