We had such a great Christmas Break. It was so nice to spend so much time together without having to adhere to work, school, and activity schedules.
The Sunday before Christmas we were able to attend the annual Popa dinner (Jared's extended family), we had so much fun. We spent Christmas Eve with Jared's family. The kids had a blast together (as did the adults)!
The Hamilton's traveled to Portage for Christmas Day with the Reynolds' family. Ashley's Aunt Gayle and cousin, Christopher made the trip up from Carmel to join in the festivities.
The 2 days after Christmas we headed into Chicago to see the sights. We had hot chocolate at the Walnut Room at Macy's (formerly, Marshall Field's). We then went to Navy Pier for the Winter Wonderland fun! Bryce got to ice skate for the first time and really liked it! We then went to Zoo Lights at Lincoln Park Zoo. It was a bit cold, but the kids had fun! We spent the next day riding the South Shore train to go to the Museum of Science and Industry.
Enjoy the pictures!
what fun Christmas memories!!! Oliver has been asking about bryce. He said tonight "mom, we haven't seen bryce for weeks!". Maybe we can gather for a playdate?
