Summary

            Appeal from the Iowa District Court for Polk County, Coleman McAllister, Judge.  AFFIRMED.  Considered without oral argument by Tabor, C.J., and Ahlers and Sandy, JJ.  Opinion by Ahlers, J.  (16 pages)

            Ryan Waller appeals the district court’s decree dissolving his marriage to Sasha Kill.  Ryan challenges the district court’s determinations regarding physical care of their children, income for child and spousal support purposes, and the amount and duration of spousal support.  OPINION HOLDS: The district court correctly determined that placing the children in Sasha’s physical care is in the best interests of the children.  The decree equitably determined Ryan’s income, as well as the amount and duration of spousal support awarded to Sasha.  We decline to address Ryan’s arguments that were not properly preserved for appeal and deny Sasha’s request for appellate attorney fees.
