Uncle Ben & Aunt Angel

Our 10 days in Iowa every summer are almost like a family reunion. My parents and siblings are flung out all over the place but we all come back together for a few days each summer. I love that Peter had so much time to get to know his Aunt and Uncle and they got to know the funny little kid that he is turning into.

Peter and Uncle Ben liked to make faces at one another and trade hats back and forth.

I thought it was cute when they both fell asleep in the car on the drive home from our family reunion. It had been a full day!

Uncle Ben had Peter giggling like a maniac in the backseat. Peter has never had so much backseat entertainment!

Aunt Angel was fun too. Sometimes she brought her dog, Schatzi. Peter wanted to play with her like he does with Gizmo but Schatzi is still a puppy and a little too energetic. Peter got scared a couple times when Schatzi jumped at him and he needed hugs.

Angel didn't mind giving hugs though! She liked to play with Peter!

One day we went to the park! Angel climbed all over the jungle gym but it was too big for Peter. He ended up playing in the dirt and sand. His feet were so dirty afterwards!

Hugs with Auntie!

One day we went to the county fair. Angel helped Peter dance at the puppet show!

It was so nice to see Aunt Angel and Uncle Ben. I wish we all lived closer. I'm thankful for the internet though. It helps close the gap a little bit!
