Summer fun in Lyons

One weekend in Lyons, Grandma Joan's church had a summer carnival to kick off Vacation Bible School.

Cooper and Grandma riding in a train of sorts:

Sidewalk chalk:

Water fun:

After the carnival, we hunted down Grandpa Cecil who was working in the field with his new tractor:

Oh my, it's fancy!

And finally, here we are at the local Mexican restaurant in Lyons.

This place has been around a long time. And a couple of people in my immediate family profess to love it. But my sisters and I recently realized that none of our spouses had ever been there. We always come up with some excuse *not* to eat there when the son-in-laws are home.

Well no more. Alan and Cooper have feasted and enoyed at El Dee Grande.
