Spelling out IOWA twice, I think?
They ate at a restaurant that claims to have the world's largest hamburger. It weighed 25 pounds (that's like having Rebekah on a sesame bun). I think Dave said that 8 of them shared it, and he was the only one to finish his portion. He said it wasn't that good ~ too much relish, but he never wastes anything!!
The game was a rainy mess, so Dave didn't even bring our camera out, which he was really disappointed about. But you can't beat a Hawkeye victory over then ranked #5 Penn State. I was shocked when they won, but Dave said he had been confident all along!
I took the girls to visit my parents that same weekend...
My parents live in a relatively rural area, but it's not that rural so we were surprised nonetheless to see this horse-drawn wagon going down their street. Alyssa made me run down the road after it to click a photo.
We went out shopping with my mom because A and E needed new gymnastics leos, and Rebekah some shoes (which, Mom, she won't leave the new ones on her feet, I don't know what I am going to do with this girl once the weather gets any colder) and we ate lunch at Red Robin. Such a fun place, we love the milkshakes, and of course, the Red Robin.
Back at home...
Dad brought home lots of ice cream from the Penn State creamery. It's delicious! He brought home: cookie dough, cookies and cream, death by chocolate, peachy paterno, and a chocolate chip cookie sandwich with mint chip in the middle for me. Something for everyone, and our freezer is stocked! The girls love sampling all of them.
