Family

We had a family reunion for Jess's mom's side in Spillville, Iowa this weekend.





Gretta discovered she could climb UP the slide.....


And have fun on the swings with her cousin Petra.



Petra was all smiles! It was so good to visit with her, Jeff and Angelie for the weekend.


One of Spillville's sites to see was the Bily Clocks Museum. It had the clocks on display along with some Antonin Dvorak (famous Czech composer) memorabilia from when he and his family lived there in 1893. There were many beautiful wooden carved clocks, made by brothers Frank and Joseph Bily, one of which they had been offered 1 million dollars for by Henry Ford back in 1929, they declined the offer.


Family!
