Here are the lovely "crack flowers" I saw on my walk today. Enjoy!

Well, we are back in Illinois and not planning any more road trips - at least not yet! I've included pictures from Sarah and Britton's wedding and one from out Texas weekend, of Rachel, of course!



After almost a week in New York City we headed for Fort Worth, Texas - this time we drove!


It was an interesting trip, what with all the recent flooding in Illinois and especially along the Mississippi River. We were amazed at some of the corn fields.

By this time the corn is usually about shoulder high - we saw some that had to have been recently planted, or should I say, replanted. The corn was barely up - I think we need to pray for a long summer and fall so that all new crops have time to grow and mature properly. There were many fields that had not been touched and many that had very wet spots showing.

We were fortunate to spend the week in New York with lots of family. We had a blast! We were so happy that the siblings, aunts, uncles and cousins who were able to make it to New York had a good time.

We went to Texas for another wedding and saw tons of old friends from Illinois!?! When you spend a long time in small towns, your friends become your family! We wouldn't have missed that wedding unless it had happened the weekend before it did (one can't miss their own daughter's wedding!).

Have a good July and keep reading!
