Too much time had gone by since our last visit to Grandpa and Grandma Schrag's house and it's been truly wonderful to be together again. We of course had seen them several times in the past year, but it was high time to be at their house again. Andy, Lia and Otto-the-dog came, too!
Here are some of the random photos I snapped - simply capturing moments throughout the weekend.
One thing is a constant when we're together - coffee and a counter top full of food.
Tim and Sue live in a woodsy neighborhood. We always enjoy the trees and nature around us when we're here.
We walked down, around and over to a creek and found a tiny mountain to climb,
some ice to crunch,
and some crazy faces looking up at us from the ice.
Mr. Otto, is a dog full of personality and curiosity. Levi spent a lot of time "playing" with Otto throughout the weekend.
Andy and Lia made three pies on Thursday morning! They did a lovely, lovely job: key lime, pumpkin and chocolate pecan.
Left over pie crust was transformed into mini-cinnamon rolls.
Levi and Otto would even wear out together - chillin' on the couch after a full day of play.
We stopped in to check on one of Tim's favorite fishing spots. In the past several weeks he'd caught enough fish there so we could enjoy a wonderful fried fish supper.
There's a wind farm just outside of Bloomington Normal. It's always mesmerizing to see all the turbines spinning in the wind.
A couple fires were made, and bunch of marshmallows were consumed.
One thing that I didn't photograph was the football that was watched, or the Wii and iPad that were played. I also missed a great opportunity to photograph a contentiously fun game of croquet.
