our time in Illinois


Checking back in?  Here are pictures from the few days we spent in Illinois after dropping off Marcus at camp.  We started with a trip to the Children's Museum in Decatur.  I love this place.  The admission is not expensive and all their activities are hands on and play oriented.  The kids had a blast.
brave stinker to climb to the top of the 2 story net climby thing.  What you don't see is Andy following him up-a tight fit in some spots-it's not quite made for adults


I stalked Liam a fair amount while the older ones played together

cool water feature

of course, he would enjoy painting on a window

sweet fat legs!

Kella got some Aunt Kim love

I think Cassie was happy to have her cousins to play with

they had fun pretending to shop for groceries

please note Ewan's basket has fruits, veggies, eggs and 2 big things of ice creams

and Cale-he had everything boxed, premade, sugary-he loves his sugar

the boys got to play games with Grammy Linda

Saturday, we got to meet "new" cousin baby Everett

The boys got to play with Xander and Grammy and Lanny got to see all the kids.

After chillin' at Jim and Courtney's for the morning, we packed up the van and headed back to Indiana for a few days.  Cale stayed in Illinois at Grammy Linda's and got lots of attention, play games, had a sleepover with Cassie and got to see Madagascar 3.  Spoiled.

Back in Indiana, we got to unpack and relx for a few days.  Then, it was time to repack and head back to Illinois to get Marcus and Cale and start the second half of our June Illinois adventure.

Stay tuned.
