Christopher and I had a KID FREE WEEKEND!!! We headed to Chicago for a four day weekend to celebrate the marriage of our friends Eric and Beth. We picked up Jenny on our way up there and met up with Melinda for some shopping, swimming, and movies on Thursday. We stayed downtown so we walked everywhere and soaked up the city. Friday we went to a Cubs game...they lost of course but it was still a blast! We stocked up on Cubs gear for us and for the boys. Friday night Brad, Caitlin, and Derek arrived and we hit the town for dinner and drinks...it was so nice to get together, relax, and catch up! Saturday we got up early headed down to Navy Pier, took a speed boat tour, and had lunch. Saturday afternoon was Eric and Beth's wedding and that night was the reception...super fun! We all had a blast dancing, taking pictures, and watching our friends celebrate their love for each other. After, the reception we went swimming...well me and Jenny hit the hot tub...it was very nice to sit in a hot tub because it has been quite some time since I've basically been preggos for the last four years! Sunday we got up and headed back home reliving the weekend with stories, recaps, and pictures...we were very glad to get home to our babies but absolutely LOVED the quality time with each other and friends...its such a blessing to be able to devote time to each other and invest in our marriage!!! Thank you to my awesome sister and soon to be brother in law for taking such great care of our babies, thanks to my wonderful husband for the awesome weekend and thanks to our friends for making it a blast!! Looking forward to next years get together...maybe a wedding again??? Melinda??? Derek???
