Rockford, Illinois

By | July 19, 2017

Our time in Rockford was the centerpiece of the trip, and we spent more time here than anywhere else (though I alone disappeared for a few days, which I will explain in the next post). There were lots of adventures, many of which were not photographed (by Kelli or me) and so are largely ignored here.

I mentioned last time that we visited Kelli’s aunt on the way to Rockford, but I didn’t share a picture.

The next day Kelli’s brother drove down from Minnesota and before the weekend was out, we all went to Culver’s, a regular favorite for us when we come to town.

On Sunday morning, Bethany and Grandpa helped to lead worship in church. That was a first time for Bethany and she did great!

The kids went on quite a few fishing trips with Grandpa, and they also enjoyed walking the dog with him.

They threw a graduation party for the older boys.

Everyone was happy when Kelli’s sister drove over from Iowa for a visit.

Here we are all gathered around the dinner table.

And I’ll close with this shot that Kelli took of Jonathan playing with his Legos.

Everyone had a great week!
