Our first Springfield Visitors

Last weekend we had our first visitors from Springfield, actually they live in Nixa.  Mike, Susan (my scrapping ya-ya) and their two boys, Ian and Ethan.  We had a full weekend with Saturday for Susan and I to run the town and then on Sunday, the two grown boys hit the golf course.

 Susan and I became antique/flea marketers for the day.  It was gorgeous outside but the allergies took us into Whaley's Pharmacy for Susan to get some meds.  Old fashioned pharmacy with a soda fountain.
 Ian, Mark, Maitlyn, Ethan and Marissa after lunch near the Capitol.  The big boys took the kids to the Corn Maize, Sonic for lunch, walking around the Capitol and then they somehow wondered into Yo Yums for frozen yogurt!  And here Susan and I felt guilty about grabbing our lunch there!  Funny how we were all in there one time or another during the day.
 The Jefferson City Corn Maize before the kids entered.  They had to wait for 45 minutes for the other group to get done so they goofed around the outside for a while.  All had fun in the maize and they all got lost for a bit.  They got "corn-fused" so they "corn-cut" themselves out the side of the maize.
 The grown ups went out for the evening.  We started at the Summitt Winery for a glass of wine and then for dinner we went to El Jimador for a stuffing full of Mexican food.  At home we played Spades, a new game that Mic and Susan taught us at their lake cabin.  Susan entertained us by her upside down person!
Sunday the boys went to the Eldon Golf Course for a beautiful day of golf.  Mike is cleaning his golf balls in this picture.  What a great smile!  We ate dinner and then our friends headed back to Nixa :(  We are so ready for you to come next with Susan and Mike!!
