We visited both sides of the family over the holiday weekend. It was a lot of driving, but well worth it. We had not been to IL to visit since Easter, so our visit was overdue! We had to return Megan to her family, so fitting everything into our car was a real joy. We seriously looked like a clown car!! I wish I had a video of us packing the car. We have a Rondo with a 3rd row seat and we had 2 adults, 4 kids and 2 dogs... along with luggage, dog crate, etc. with us! Yikes! I'm not sure how it all fit!
I convinced my mom to get out her embroidery machine & make some tea towels with days of the week on them for me! She doesn't use her machine often enough, but when she does - she's good at it and everything turns out nicely.
Harrison & Marc at the lake. It was rainy all day, but we were able to feed the ducks & let the kids run off some energy when it was only sprinkling.
All of the boys wanted to go out to the end of the dock where the ducks/birds hang out. They had to tiptoe to avoid stepping in all of the mess... eeeewww!
On Sunday, we drove to Macomb to visit Tommie's family. Introducing: Dusty - our new "sister". :) All of Mom & Dad Payne's other cats have died, so they got Dusty - she's the friendliest cat they've ever had. I hope as she grows older is stays that way!
The boys - playing the Wii.
The girls - looking at pictures and feeding everyone fruit.
Brianne's 11th birthday party was held at a nearby park. We were thrilled to see that there was a free dog park there! So, we took the dogs to meet some new friends. Lucky was a bit scared and perfected her "roll over and play dead" move... ha, ha
All of the Payne grandchildren...
Happy Birthday, Brianne!!
