Yes, I know y'all are jealous. I am off for another week. My life is so hard (sarcasm). Just kidding. Ethan and I got to spend a few days with Grandma (Nancy) and Rhonda, Allie, and Chelsey. Larry drove us down to Elmwood on Sunday to spend Rhonda's ahem... 29th birthday with her, then Larry drove back... alone. Ethan and I stayed. Monday we went to the Peoria Zoo! This was so much fun because they had just finished a new Africa addition. It was awesome. Then, we headed to Starved Rock to the Grizzly Jack's Grand Bear Resort. The resort was fairly new. Larry and I have been to Starved Rock - camping, but not this. The resort had a water park, an amusement park, a miniature golf course, a playground, etc... it was reasonably priced and very near. Of course, there was also a shuttle for the grounds, and guess what? It was a train... how fortuitous for us (more sarcasm)! Luckily, Aunt Rhonda had her Tom Tom to help us navigate through town.
All we heard about was the shuttle "train" and where is it? Ethan had a blast with Chelsey, copying her and being her little shadow. He adores her. We had fun playing in the water park and Grandma went down the water slides. I went on some rides with Allie, and I don't think she wants to do that again. We don't spend this much time with Grandma, so this was so much fun. We are so grateful for Rhonda and her flexibility and to Grandma for her generosity and willingness - thank you for the wonderful time, it was so much fun!
