Illinois Trip II

Carter and went to Carbondale last weekend to surprise my grandparents and see the rest of the fam.  They were very surprised and excited to see us.  It was a busy weekend.  My dad had his golf tournament going on and recruits in town.  The first night we went to the dinner that went with the golf tournament.  They had a Saluki bounce house that Carter loved.  My dad took him with him to schmooze the crowd.  While dad was giving his speech Carter ran and ran around this room in the back.  My mom or I chased him around.  Everytime the crowd would start clapping he would stop and clap like crazy.  The next day we went to the SIU vs Indiana State football game.  They had a tailgate before it for the players and recruits.

Carter stole a rice crispie treat from Grandpa

Why is he looking at it oddly? Maybe it doesn't taste so good with the Ketchup he dipped it in and cheese?



Playing ball with Granny.

Checking out the court. 

1st football game!

  

Grandpa took him on the field at half time

He was ready to go play

He loved honey of course

He kept going behind her and saying "go go".

Ashley and her roommate Gabe came up Sunday, but I somehow didn't get any pics of that day.
Sadly our trip didn't end so well.  When we woke up on Monday Carter had thrown up in his bed and kept throwing up all morning.  Thankfully he took a nap and woke up not throwing up and on the plane we went.  He didn't feel good and couldn't eat or drink anything, but we made it through all THREE plane trips with no puking.  We may have passed on germs to the whole country, but at least we made it home!
