On the 21st I jumped on a plane that took me from Sacramento, CA, to one of the biggest airports I have been to: O'Hare International. From there I took a smaller plane to Peoria where my family was waiting outside the terminal. But it wasn't just my family waiting at the airport, but the McDonald family as well! I was pleasantly surprised.
One of the first things we did that was actually captured on film... er... memory card, was to take the boats out on their pond at the back of their house.
No motors or sails involved. Just good old fashioned rowing.
Which do you think was faster?
It's also a spectator's sport.
Sara was having a wonderful time. Either that or she ate a lemon.
Dad and Nic on the other hand?
No one wanted to row with me.
I don't smell that bad. See, I put deodorant on!!
There was a certain couple that needed chaperoning at all times. Even someone to sit on the couch in between them. Mom looks happy.
Our trip here in Illinois is coming to an end, and the trip home is being planned. Perhaps a Northern route through North Dakota and Montana? Hopefully we will keep you updated.

Great pictures, and hilarious captions! Even though I'm one of the privileged people who get (no, I wasn't even thinking of using the phrase "have to" :)) to spend time with y'all and see myself in a few of those pictures, it's still fun to be able to see them on here. :) I even considered skipping a post of my own and just liking to y'all! :)

Well... If you all do take the northerly route home, you know that you'll be expected to stop by our place for at least long enough to say "Hi"!
