Memorial Day !

We all gathered at Becky and Shane's for Memorial Day... It so wonderful being together.

Sunday Afternoon Tea!

Just happened that ALL three of our granddaughters were at our house on Sunday afternoon. It was a perfect time to have tea.... They really enjoy "Tea at Mimi's". Wanted to share some of the shots I took of them. They are so sweet. Hope they ALWAYS like to have tea with Mimi.

"Take me out to the Ballgame!"

Part of Gary's birthday surprise was that the kids had gotten him tickets to a "Greenville Drive" baseball game. They also got him an official cap and jersey. We all went as a family and it was a lot of FUN! Gary really enjoyed the evening.

HAPPY 60TH BIRTHDAY, Gary!

This week-end we flew to Greenville to spend the Memorial Day holiday and Gary's birthday with our families there. It was so much fun to SURPRISE Gary with a sign and everyone there at the airport to greet him.... Watch for more post about our celebration.

MORE "Tulip Time" in Pella!

Wanted to share a few more shots that we took in Pella. What a beautiful place, especially if you love tulips like I do. Don't ask any questions about the "Dutch Guy". You really do get the feel of the Dutch.

Tulip Time In Pella Iowa!

This week I got to travel with dear friends to Pella, Iowa. It was "Tulip Time". I have never seen so many beautiful tulips. Pella is a Dutch community and really takes pride in the Dutch heritage. I will post more pictures soon.

SPRING has SPRUNG!

FINALLY spring has come to Illinois. Last week it snowed a bit. I had to take a couple of shots in our back yard of the tulips and other spring flowers. We all look so forward to signs of spring.
