Weekend Full of Visits

One of my favorite aspects of summer is visiting with anyone and everyone. It seems as though we are, in general, more likely to get around to see others or have family and friends over. This past weekend was no different. Saturday started off with our normal routine: dry cleaners, Sam's Club, Meijer, house cleaning, laundry....normal routine things. On Saturday evening, Dad and Tammy came over for dinner. What a great visit. It's been quite some time since they were able to hang out for a visit, but none-the-less, we crammed in as much conversation and play time as possible. The boys absolutely adore the two of them which is so awesome to see. It also helps that they aren't afraid to get down and dirty with them. (Not literally, just figuratively.) Here are a few shots of the fun we had.

One day we'll get a better picture.

It wouldn't be the best visit ever if "horsey rides" weren't given!

Sunday morning we arose bright and early and headed down to Dubois County. We stopped by my mother's house and visited for a short while. After we headed over to a gathering my high school friends had. Nicole and Steve so graciously hosted the gang. Their house is absolutely beautiful. I believe in total there were around 16 adults and 8 kids. Not as many as last year, however it was great to see everyone. We did take a few shots of the kids as well as the "kids" from high school. We left our camera in the car, but were promised to get a few pictures sent along from those that did bring theirs along.

After our departure from the country, we headed up to Bloomington and had dinner with Sara and Daniel. It's always nice to see others on their home turf. We don't take enough time to get down and see them, so stopping by on our way home was a nice treat. We've decided to make a more concerted effort to get away to visit though. Once we were, we let the boys loose in the sprinkler for some good old fashion fun. Kylie, the neighbor girl / Jackson's girlfriend came over to join in on the fun.


Up this week: visit with Jason and Gunmarie (and girls) prior to their return to Sweden. We have a neighborhood cookout on Saturday and currently nothing on Sunday. I'm sure we'll find someone to visit with.



until next time...lc
