We sort of unexpectedly took another trip to IL, after doing battle with some major sickies.
The purpose of our visit was to see Great Grandma (Aunt Gramma). I wish we had more photos with her, but the layout of her room was challenging and the camera moments were limited for different reasons.
Gramma got a kick out of Carolyn tucking babies into her bed.
We also were lucky enough to get to see Lauren and the adorable Baby Ethan.
Lauren took us out to see the buffalo, but he was asleep so we mostly just picked apples.
Of course we went to Steak-n-Shake. We got to visit Becca and her kiddos while there. This was the most successful of two outings with the Rodeffer kiddos. The first was a trip to the movies... Movies, it turns out, are loud and very dark and when you combine that with a mechanical/space-age theme, albeit very kid-oriented, Carolyn freaks out.
But Steak-n-Shake was a hit--especially the hats.
Abbie was rather enthralled at turning on Dad's solor-powered lights.
Abbie and Papa had some very good bonding moments.
It was kind of a heavy visit for different reaons, but I'm glad that we went.
