Rockford

It has been a very busy, exhausting week...so instead of taking Sunday to rest and catch up on things around the house, we decided to head to Rockford to do some boxing. What a beautiful day we ended up with! 74 degrees & sunny. It actually started to rain as we were driving back into the Quad Cities late last night. It doesn't get much better than that!



We were fortunate with some family friendly boxes. When Matt & I went there last April for our anniversary, we tried to get a lot of the hiking boxes. Due to the flooding and raining that weekend, we were very limited. Matt loved seeing that there were new boxes planted also, so we had a lot to choose from!




The big thing that we loved about this weekend is that Will & Maddie walked 2 of the trails! We have always taken the stroller with us or I have stayed behind with the twins while Matt & the girls went on the trail. We are very excited about this. We could tell that Maddie & Will were excited too and loved being able to get out and walk/run/skip (in Maddie's case!).















Friday & Saturday we held our neighborhood garage sale. It feels great to have that done. Now I am catching up on emails, laundry, bills, etc since I haven't done any of my daily work for 4 days!

We were able to nab these boxes:
"The Turkey Festival " by P.Granola
"Peace Plaza" by CraftyOnes
"4-H Letterbox" by River Rat
"Shimmy for a Cure" by RaqsEnigma
"Softball Series: Go Thunder" by azure
"Larry’s Landing" by Trail Rider

"Larger than Life: Johnny Appleseed" by Shi eh ree
