A SWEET visit to the Windy City!!!!

This past week, the kids and I tagged along to Chicago with Jared. Jared was there to work for 4 days and the kids and I were there to HAVE FUN!!!! Have fun? Indeed we did, we had LOTS. We spent the entire day outside from 7am-5pm!

I could not have asked for a better trip with the kids. We had beautiful weather, well rested kids, lots of snacks, lots of smiles, lots of giggles which lead to a TON OF FUN.

We spent our days at the Lincoln Park Zoo, Millenium Park, Farmers Market, playgrounds, bus rides, Navy Pier, meeting up with friends, and LOTS of good food!!!

For the kids being so good, I rewarded them with one special item each. Bryce choose to get some Legos from the Lego Store and Sadie chose to make a Bear at Build-A-Bear (which she named Ballerina)!

Jared and I actually got 2 date nights. One was impromptu as the kids fell asleep on the way to a kid friendly restaurant, so we ate Wildfire while they slept in the booth! Our friend, Anna, watched the kids one night and we enjoyed dinner right on the Chicago River.

This was such an enjoyable week for all of us. We really love going back to the city and visiting, but still wouldn't trade our Indy life for downtown Chicago living.

Enjoy the pictures from our trip...
