Iowa Fields of Opportunities


Well our family has made another major move and we have landed in Iowa. Why? Well there are fields of oppotunities here, or so we've read. Ryan moved out the end of August and the kids and I followed in October. Packing up was as good as it gets being a single mom with four kids, one being only 4 months old, but with the help of family, Carrie, and our new friend Melanie we did it! Thanks for all your help!!! Right below the Iowa sign is our library (which is AmaZing! and Ryan works in the tall old building behind it that at one time was a hospital).
We live in Burlington and it really is a cute little town. We are only about 30 minutes or so from Nauvoo - SO - if anyone has been wanting to visit Nauvoo and needs a place to stay PLEASE come and stay with us we would love visitors!
 Everytime Violette sees the river she says, "There's the mighty Mississip!"




 

It has been a fun change, but it was so nice being close to family and friends in the west. We sure miss everyone!!! and since I'm being honest I miss our yard and all the fruit trees!

Oh no! We should've had a grandview reunion before you moved! Good luck in Iowa! I have a few friends who've lived in different towns there and loved it.
