Family Bucket List: Road Trip to Iowa

There are way too many pictures for me to post everything we did  and every where we went, so here are just a few!  We were planning on taking a road trip to Iowa (because it's close!) last year over spring break, but I ended up starting my Master's Program instead so it got put on hold. Since Brian and I are both working on Master's programs this summer I knew a family trip was out, but 3 days to Iowa was still an option.  Plus it's the perfect place for us because we had places we could stop and play every few hours.  The kids did GREAT and had fun at each of the places we went.  Want to know what we did?  Here's a quick snapshot of where we went (PS...most of these were reduced or free admission b/c of our reciprocal science museum passes.  This is a great way to learn, play and see some great places as you travel!  It also pays for itself very quickly!!)
