Road Trip

The kids and I drove up to The Schoenstatt Center in Wisconsin, where Sister Marie lives, who leads my Mary Group. Our group and a couple other groups from Elmhurst collected gently used toys and clothes to give to some of the families in need that the Sisters serve in Wis. The kids loved seeing the Shrine and being part of bringing to those less fortunate, they really liked the gift shop and picking out something for themselves too. On our way home we stopped at A&W for lunch and of course, root beer floats. Then we made one more detour to the Jelly Belly Factory for the tour. Their favorite part was the ride on the train, Gabe and Cam both kept asking to go again.
