Midwest Family Time, part 1 (Chicago)

Post date: Jul 10, 2012 7:34:44 PM

We're back.

We went to visit family in the Midwest and we had fun.

We drove for a total of 36 hours.

We talked, danced, laughed.

Ate really good food.

Were surprised by the summer heat.

Here are some highlights:

rock gardening at the Bowles apartment downtown Chicago

playing Astronaut at the museum of science and industry

making new friends

watched fireworks

played in the water with cousins

made an American flag out of fruit (thanks pinterest)

ate at my great grandmother's (Ola Mae Hoskins's) dining room table

met my grandmother's 91 year old first cousin

had fun with my mom and her sibblings

It was great!
