Fun filled Sunday and a drive home

It was a couple short days in Wisconsin.  2 1/2 days.  But so sweet!  This picture was taken a little over 2 weeks ago.  Today, they are experiencing 81 degrees!!!  A hot spell for a few days there.

On the Sunday morning we were there, Hannah was part of the worship team.  How I enjoy seeing my grandchildren using their gifts for Him!

Adam and Sophia helped with worship at another church that needed last minute help.  And since someone else was preaching that morning, Adam was free to jump in and help.  

After church Claire had a make-up ballet class and Allen and I took her so Adam and Jill could have a little date.

In the afternoon, we played games and laughed and laughed!  Telestrations is such a great game!!

We went out for dinner to a Chinese place.

Because a couple of us have brocolli allergies, they chose not to do the cooking at the grill and we were just bummed about it.  We wanted the fire!  Next time, perhaps those of us with allergies need to order from the menu and let the others get that fun experience.

Adam was keeping track of the March Madness game while we were eating and guess what??   I won the Graber Challenge bracket!  I had absolutely no clue about the teams or their ratings.  It was all random.  I will pick up the Graber trophey from my son Josh, who won last year, next time we see them!

Sunday evening, we had an Easter egg hunt for the kids.  They are not too old!  Hannah, a senior in high school, said "I LOVE Easter egg hunts!"  Especially since you can hide them in pretty difficult places and there was some money involved!

Monday morning as the family was getting ready for work/school, we left for Kansas.   There was a little bit of ground fog

Looks like one cow escaped!

When we were going up to Wisconsin, we encountered lots of deer.  Like around 80!!  On the way back to Kansas, we saw LOTS of police!  Luckily we didn't run into deer and we didn't get stopped by any police!

When we got to Kansas, they were burning the Flint Hills (on purpose).

I had Al turn around so I could get a good look at these elk.

The day after we were home, we got this package delivered on our porch.  There was a "toothpick bird" at the Chinese restaurant and the kids knew Papa needed one so they ordered one right away!
