We drove 27 hours total from Wednesday to Sunday at noon. I've never driven west from DC before, so it was wonderful to cruise through towns that had buildings painted like works of art. So cool!
Mia was super-antsy in Illinois until Mom opened the window, put the bean bag in front of it, and let her stare at the squirrels in the yard. Then JP joined her, and she was the happiest camper!
Brent showed me how to fold napkins so they stand up on their own, and I added the leaf garland and squirrel placecards. Cute!
Jeez Louise, the apple pie and pumpkin custard Mom made for dessert was to
die for! Topped the custard with candied ginger, and whipped cream. Bon appetit!
We had such a great visit to the midwest! Thanks for the excellent hospitality, Mom and Brent!
Last night John Paul made the monumental Squash-henge while we prepped for dinner. What an artist!
