Thursday - March 30

 Another summery day....we had breakfast and then off to downtown.   I got a manicure with Tamara while Mark ran some errands.

Home for lunch, quiet afternoon reading and playing games.   

Today is the 7th anniversary of Mark's Mother's passing.....she would be so thrilled with how her family is growing and thriving.    Challenges certainly happen, too, as yesterday Doris (sister) had her husband Rich placed in a memory care unit in Chicago area.    Such a sad day for her and all of us.    Another sister, Sharon had her surgery this afternoon in Louisville for fractured ulna and radius.   It was a major break with 6-8 week recovery.  On a brighter note, we have 2 more weddings (nephews) coming this year.

Our neighbor Dick and his friend, Monika came over for drinks, snacks and visiting.   We had a delightful 3-hour visit on the patio - lots of laughs and so many topics to cover!

Our Bloomington kiddos are back home after spending a few days away on spring break.   Anne, Connor and their fur babies were in Branson and Connor had a great time golfing.

Sooo close to a hole-in-one

Connor was golfing and hanging out with the bison

And Liam is back home after a fun time in Nashville with friends - Top Golf, Country Music Hall of Fame, zoo, etc.
