Plein aire group at Mayslake, Peabody Estate

 I had a sudden memory of seeing this place on the way to Oakbrook when we went shopping in probably highschool!  You could see it through the trees at that time.

 The day was beautiful, cool and sunny.  We always finish up with a critique.

Plein air group

 Our plein aire group always visits Judy's gardens in Frankfort.

 She sets out lots of pots and groupings and little to draw.

 A few more photos- this archway is new since last year.

 Finishing up with our potluck lunch.

Grandsons visits

 One grandson has the Boyd curls and the younger -straight hair!  Photo from around Dec.

 Sawyer has been up on his feet at an early age!

 Everett loves cars and trucks- this was over July 4th weekend.

And yep- Sawyer still pulling himself up and not even nine months yet!  They're both such fun!
