Right before school started, we decided to take one last trip out to Nauvoo, Illinois to visit Grandma and Grandpa Marshall. The kids were great on the road trip, which makes things much easier!
Even though it was September, the weather was still plenty hot! We had a picnic in town while we played at the park.
When we were at Grandma and Grandpa's house, the kids got to play in the sprinklers and help water the lawn!
We also got to ride the boat along the "Big Muddy" and eat at a restaurant along the way! The kids loved it.
It was pretty windy, so everyone's hair is all over the place!
Grandma was kind enough to set up a slip-n-slide and pool for the kids, too. They had a blast.
Callie wanted a picture of her completed puzzle. She was very proud that she finished it!
We also made some time to attend a local festival with some fun rides. It was so incredibly hot while we walked around, though. The kids were red-faced and sweating so we kept dumping water on their heads to cool them off!
Callie was very enthusiastic about the roller coaster before getting on. Afterward, she said she did not like it because it was too fast! The boys had a great time, though!
Jack was the only kid tall enough to ride the swings, so he was solo for this ride.
Despite the heat, the kids had a lot of fun and would love to go back. We'll have to find a place around here with some fun carnival rides!
