Illinois Trip Day 3

We had a cookout at Mom's house today for everyone to come over and meet and hang out with Scarlett.  There were tons of family and friends there and it was a day filled with love and smiles.  There were so many people, I didn't even get pictures of everyone!  We were so happy to see everyone and glad you could all come.  Thank you!

Illinois Trip Day 1

We made it to Illinois last night for a quick trip so that Scarlett could meet the other side of her family and lots of friends.  Today we woke up and headed straight to the zoo with Mom, Jeff, Yvonne, Kat, Jason, Sara, Jackson and Caden.  We met up with a friend of mine, Jill, saw lots of animals and had a great time!
