Eating, playing, chapel, business and catching up with old
friends at this year's Presbytery meeting in Iowa. Pictures will have to do on this one. (They are in no particular order.)

Illinois for a Day!
Visiting relatives is a joy. Driving 39 hours straight and
having only one day to visit is a bummer. However, that is what we had and we
made the most of it.
We traveled clear across the country and saw one of the most
important people in the world. Jean and her “grandsister”, Stacy, share the
grandmothering duties of our Lilyana.
She’s a favorite for the whole family.
Dear, dear Melissa.
James the Grandpa & James the Uncle, enjoying Lilyana.
After the long RV ride, Sara enjoyed being active with the McD girls. Grace liked the ride, too.
Abigail & Lilyana, together again.
Jonathan & Caleb, need I say more.
Sisters, sisters, there were never more devoted sisters!
Knox was made to feel right at home with the younger McD girls, who included him in their games.
Laura does love her brothers.
Matthew & Jill prepping the chicken. It came from the store, but Matthew is well versed at butchering chickens!
James VI barbequed dinner. Even with the great amount of smoke, the chicken was marvelous.
Since Ben couldn’t come on this trip, he sent his
mother-in-law a case of real California avocados.
Perhaps not a good substitute for Ben, but definitely appreciated. Stacy made real GUACAMOLE!
Dave & Jonathan got into the process of prepping avocados for the freezer.
Typical of Midwest weather, it rained in the morning, but was gorgeous in the evening. A family dinner at McD’s must include the Vogels from across the street.
Tiffany always enjoys her baby.
William shared a birthday celebration with his niece.
What’s a boy’s birthday without LEGOS.
The extent that Grandpas will go to entertain their grandchildren.
Laura, Morgen, Matthew & Jessica represent the craziness of our one day
at their home.
