After Misty's house we drove to Charleston Illinois to my dear friends house. It was her wedding on the 3rd so I helped her with some last minute preparations for her big day it was so much fun and I loved being her matron of honor. I put together a bag of goodies with any possible item we might need, safety pins, lotion, hairspray, bobby pins, tide cleaner, etc. This is probably the last wedding I will be in and it was a great way to go out. I loved every second of this wedding, thank you Danielle for allowing me to be in it! Unfortunately I have no pictures of the wedding (since I was in it) so Danielle if you have some pictures I want them!!
While we were in Charleston I had a lot of fun with Jillian my little buddy for the time being. I painted her nails and curled her hair, I had a lot of fun playing with Danielle's girl. She has quite the personality and makes me laugh constantly. Tyler is hilarious too, he draws some pretty impressive pictures can play video games very well and was a great play mate for Joshua. Will had a lot of fun playing in their large house. He wasn't too sure about the dogs at first and would cry anytime they barked but as time went on he loved those dogs and would hug on them and giggle at them. Danielle has one step down from their dining room to their living room. While we were there Will became a pro at crawling up and down them. He can now pull him self to standing (another thing he learned to do there).

Tyler and Joshua. Joshua was very mad that Tyler had to leave and was not willing to give me a smile

Joshua, once again was sad to leave, he had acquired two little buddies. Joshua loved drawing, playing video games and just playing pretend with Tyler, Danielle's son. Jillian was a ton of fun to but enjoyed more of the girlie things like dress up and playing mom and dad. One day we enjoyed the sprinkler outside and another day we took Joshua, Will and Jillian to the pool. Joshua LOVED the water slide and would go on it all day long if he was allowed to. We all enjoyed wonderful company with Danielle and her now husband and their wonderful cooking. We are so sad they live so far away (a 15.5 hour drive) and are looking forward to seeing them again soon.
While they boys and I were in Charleston Michael's friend Nathan picked up Michael and took him to Indianapolis to spend a couple of days with him. Then Monday night we met half way to pick him up. It was great to meet Nathan we have all talked with him for awhile now online but had yet to meet him. We are looking forward to seeing you again in October.
We are now in Ft. Collins and settled in, enjoying the Colorado weather. Our next visitors will be arriving on July 28th from Texas and I cannot wait to see them!!
