Saturday - October 29

Just a grand day with warm temps (70's) and some sunshine.    Felt so good to be out and about without a sweater, jacket, etc.  
 
We've been on the go all day long starting with a 7 AM hockey game for Liam.   His team won 7-5 and he scored 2 goals!
 
Then we were off to Mendota and visited my Aunt Marian
 
Sweet Aunt Marian
 
then to see my cousin Jim
Cousins Jim and Pat
 
Onto Walton and Mark's sister Sue and Tom's home and delicious lunch of fried chicken, mashed potatoes and gravy, home-grown sweet corn, fresh fruit, rolls and 3-layer chocolate chip cookie cake (each a different flavor) with butter cream frosting!   
Oh my......we practically rolled out the door!      
 
 Sue, Tom, their daughter Katy, her baby Oliver, Karen and Marilyn (sisters), Mark and I pigged out on this feast!
 
Great Auntie Karen and Oliver 
 
Onto Mendota and visited with my brother Bob and Linda.   
  They will be off to FL Monday for 3 weeks.    We'll see them in December for our
Annual Dinges Christmas gathering!
 
Back to Bloomington and tonight we are hanging out with Liam, Connor and their friend, Blaise.    Anne and Blaise's parents are at a Halloween party and Patrick has a gig in Danville.
 
We enjoyed Monical's pizza and then watched the Cubbies.
 
Wonderful home cooking, great visiting with family and cuddling Oliver made for a really enjoyable Saturday!
