Austin's Graduation

Austin graduated on Saturday from Law School. It was a nice ceremony, held in Iowa at the Marriott. We were able to go up to see it, and most of his family met there too, so we had a family reunion.

We stayed at a hotel nearby that had a "waterpark" in it. The kids really enjoyed it. It was nice to be able to take the kids to the pool anytime that we were at the hotel. Michael especially enjoyed the waterslides (there were two). He would ride them down and then run up to the top as fast as he could to ride them again. He would do that for about an hour straight. They had a small round pool where the water rushed in circles, Adam liked to swim in there. Ellie had a life vest on and she floated most of the time. She liked to float wherever Lily was.

The last morning, before everyone left, we took some pictures. Here is all of the Frosts (minus the spouses...somehow we lucked out and weren't in the pictures),

Just the kids:

While we were there, we saw some of the Amish folks, here is an Amish farm. They take such great care of their farms, you cannot easily tell that they are Amish, except if you look close, you see the horse and buggy by the stable.

We even saw a horse an buggy on the road:

It sure was great to see everyone. Overall,the trip was pretty anticlimatic...which is exactly how you want a family reunion to be!!!
