 We justt had a great weekend in Bloomington celebrating John and Alissa's birthdays.
Courtney, Paul, and girls came to our house on Friday night.
We laughed a lot, just look at little Soli and you will get a taste of what the night was like for all of us.
We left for Bloomington on Saturday morning about nine.
Tiz rode in our car with us, the maiden voyage for our new Buick Rendezvous while Courtney, Paul, and Soli followed behind.
We had a nice lunch at Wendy's' in Rochelle and then arrived at our motel, the Baymont around one.
Alissa met us at the motel and took Courtney and Paul with her to do some shopping and sightseeing.
John and I took Soli and Tiz to the Children's Museum in Bloomington.
We all had a great time.
 There is a great climbing structure for the older kids.  Tiz loved this area and was able to climb way to the top which is three stories high.
 The girls enjoyed some down time reading a few books in these cool chairs.
 Tiz loved all the hands on exhibits like the computers.
 Tiz also got to try out a child sized pair of crutches in the medical area.
 Here she is being Dr. Tizita checking out her patient.
 John and I really had to tag team in order to keep both girls happy and in our sight.
I was usually with Soli while John spent his time with Tiz.
Here Soli is driving me around in the pizza delivery truck.
 There was also a small climbing area for the little kids.  Soli enjoyed her time in there.
 After the museum, we all headed back to the motel and enjoyed birthday cake and cupcakes before going to dinner.
 Birthday boy, John 

  1.  and birthday girl, Alissa both enjoyed their dinners as did all of us.

 The maid came in and did our mirrors for us.
 Nathan brought over some legos that he had when he was little and he and Tiz had so much fun creating with them.
 Movie Star Soli kept us all laughing.  
We had our lunch at Steak and Shake, perfect way to end the weekend.
We took a scenic route home which ended up with a tour of Elkhorn.
Courtney, Paul, and the girls stayed overnight until Monday because we all had Monday off, so our weekend was even longer.
It was another memorable, fun weekend.

I rarely drop responses, however I read a ton of responses on Untitled.
I actually do have a couple of questions for you if it's allright. Is it just me or do a few of the remarks appear as if they are written by brain dead visitors? :-P And, if you are writing at additional social sites, I would like to follow anything fresh you have to post. Would you list of the complete urls of your social pages like your Facebook page, twitter feed, or linkedin profile?

Thanks for your publication on this weblog. From my own experience, occasionally softening way up a
photograph could provide the photographer with a dose of an artsy flare.
More often than not however, the soft cloud isn't precisely what you had in your mind and can sometimes spoil a normally good image, especially if you thinking about enlarging that.
