Day 1

Today is the first day of our trip to Dubuque Iowa helping out Hills and Dales! We left for out trip around 1 and took 2 different vans. To communicate between the two cars Mrs. Martin brought walkie talkies! the fellows with Mrs. Deavers was a blast! We played/did many things in the ride. We played the picnic game, I spy, spot it, abc game, card games and more! The best part of the ride was when we found a roll of duck tape, we covered our hole faces in duck tape, and were telling each other a bunch of jokes. Gabby was the best at making people laugh! We also stopped at Kwik trip on the way there and, got smoothies while the other van got chips and taco dip.The drive went great and we were in Iowa by 5. Last year the Dubuque trip stayed in a retired convent, I am happy to report we are staying in another one this year! The suite is HUGE, includes 18 rooms with multiple beds in each. After we met with the Hill and Dales crew to go over plans over this week we went inside made a plan for food and sent a team out to go groceries for the week! While waiting for the others to get back games of Uno were played and Trolls was watched! Tonights dinner was dinosaur nuggets and corndogs with mac and cheese, we also had grapes, snap peas, and the best watermelon ever. We all sat and ate like a family! We are now watching the rest of Trolls and preparing for tomorrows activities. Stay tune for the fun activities of tomorrow!
