We just came back from our “short” visit to see relatives in IL. We drove down on Friday and visited some friends of ours at the Machine Shed in Rockford, then we went to watch a cousin’s basketball game with Mom’s parents later that day. Saturday was the big party on Dad’s side of the family, while Sunday was the gathering with Mom’s family. Even though we didn’t have much time to relax, the trip was thoroughly enjoyed by everyone. Now we are back into the full “swing of things” with our busy life style.
