USA Visit-Days 14 & 15

The girls and I started our morning off by meeting Alaina and Kyla’s old preschool friends at 242 for a play.  It was great to see all of my friends as well as see how all the kids had grown in a year!

Then it was back home for us to have lunch.  I got ready then and headed back to Brighton to do a newborn photo session for my good friends.

I ended my night with a ladies night out at the Martini Bar with the preschool moms.  Fun times!

The next morning, we got an early start to southern Illinois to visit my Grandpa, Aunts & Uncles.  Our first stop, as is tradition, was Steak ‘N Shake.

We made it to the farm in the early evening and went on a Gator ride around the properties.

The corn was SO tall….way higher than “knee-high by the 4th of July!”
