Memorial Day weekend

We are forever indebted to our troops who have served or who are currently serving for our country. What a tremendous sacrafice. God bless America! We had a great weekend together as a family. Grant didn't have to wake up at 4:30 a.m. for work or school stuff, so that was a nice break for him. Today we attempted to take Noah to Shrek 4... his first movie. He surprisingly lasted about 45 minutes. We then headed downtown and hit up some shopping and playing in the water at Millenium Park, right accross from where Grant's office is downtown. Noah loved splashing around in the water.
Saturday was beautiful and we did the beach thing for the first time in Chicago. It was so packed, and so beautiful; we had a great time. I'm sure we will be back many times this summer. It's only about 2 miles from our place - so awesome!

Tomorrow Brandon and Lindsay - my bro and sis-in-law - are coming to visit. Should be a good time!

We love Chicago....come visit! :)

What? I LOOOOVE the pregnancy cleave! Who wouldn't? ;) (First of all because it is always courtesy of PREGNANCY, and secondly because I may or may not have already had to go up 2 sizes myself...) Oh, how I WISH we could come visit y'all in Chicago! I have always wanted to go there!
