Although it wasn't the big vacation we thought we'd take for our 10th Anniversary, we enjoyed a weekend away to Davenport in August.
We left the kids with my parents and drove through a rain storm Saturday morning. After grabbing lunch at Panera, we visited the Figge Art Museum. Dan was more interested in the architecture of the building than the actual art inside. That is, except for the Frank Lloyd Wright furniture exhibit. Following the museum we took a walk across the sky bride to the river and checked out the lock and dam. For dinner we enjoyed some Famous Dave's BBQ and then took a walk through the Davenport Botanical Gardens. We both wish we had something similar in Iowa City. I talked Dan into going to Chuck E. Cheese after our walk. It was late so there weren't a lot of kids there and it was fun to play the games. Plus we were able to pick up some awesome gifts for the kids! We stopped back at the botanical gardens and walked through the green houses before heading home on Sunday. We thought Sylvia would like the pictures of us at the botanical gardens with the giant leaf and the praying mantis.
I'm so thankful for the last ten years of marriage with this man.
