Iowa Visit 2007 (Moments with Poppy)

This video is a few clips of moments from an Iowa visit in 2007.
Family visits to Iowa are a cornerstone of my children's and grandchildren's childhood, creating moments and memories they will carry with them for a lifetime.
The shared laughter, stories, and the simple joy of being together forged strong bonds and a sense of belonging. These visits offer them a chance to connect with some of their roots, learn family traditions, and build relationships with relatives. The warmth of a grandparent's hug, the excitement of playing with cousins, and the comfort of familiar family rituals contribute to a tapestry of their cherished memories. These moments have provided joy and created a foundation of love and connection that supports and has shaped my children and grandchildren as they have grown over their lifetime.
