As they get older they are busier and it becomes more difficult to get them all together at the same time. We started with "half a crew".
The week started with a visit to the Abraham Lincoln Museum in Springfield, Illinois.
I know Springfield, Illinois, is not within "My Corner of the Ozarks", but all Americans should know about the life and legacy of Mr. Lincoln. We had a good time learning about Abe.
Do you recognize Abe and Mary?
Next the Maryland girls flew in to join us and we headed for the Ozarks.
We spent two days at Branson taking in Silver Dollar City and the Butterfly Palace. Aunt Janet and Uncle Dwight hosted us there. We were joined by Cousins Adelyn and Marian.
The remainder of the week was spent in Mountain View area.
The pool was fun, but nothing beats the Jack's Fork.
They are growing up too fast.
It was a privilege and a blessing to have our beautiful, fun, grandchildren for a great (too fast) week.
