Visiting Kayla in the BEAUTIFUL State of Iowa!! It was a pretty spare of the moment kind of trip. I bought my tickets and 3 days later landed in the peaceful, simple, fall-colored town of Marshalltown, Iowa. The feeling that hit me when I walked out of the airport was so familiar and peaceful that I completely felt at home! So there I was, sitting and waiting for Doobie outside of the airport while she was walking back and forth behind me, looking for me. She didn't notice my dark hair and I forgot to tell her! HA! But once we saw each other, we hugged and laughed and it was like we had never even parted. Total soul sisters. These photos are sort of out of order....but here they are!!
The town Doctor raises goats on the Hatch's family farm and yes...that is a DOG is the midst of the goats. I went over to the fence to pet him and Kayla says, "Oh no, T! You cant pet him. He thinks he's a goat." I almost died from cuteness. Apparently this big, burley, beautiful pup was raised with the goats, eats and sleeps with the goats, plays with them and protects them. He changed me world. SO CUTE.
The town Doc. He has also done work with Kayla's family's orphanage in Sierra Leone, Africa.
Some of the many Africans that live in Marshalltown.
Kayla and I found an amazing 1950s juicer at her family's thrift store for 5 bucks!! It worked to well and we made fresh carrot, orange, plum, and whatever we could find, juice!
