Sweet Home

trey and i took a quick trip to Chicago this past weekend. just the two of us.
our dear friend watched the kids from friday to sunday and then passed them off so that she could recover from having 3 children all to herself. the kids then went back home and hung out with our other friends and awaited our return. the dog stayed at home with yet another friend who hung out with him and watched the house. it took a lot of patch working to get us out of town but we were determined to make it work.
and it did.
we drove to the airport, flew in a plane and rode train to get to our hotel room on waker drive. i loved it. we met up with some people and saw a show near the cubs stadium.no Chicago trip would be complete without a hotdog! after the show we walked across the street and ate a great meal...it didn't matter that we weren't hungry...heather was happy to comply.
honestly, if Chicago had better weather i'd consider moving back...i just can't do all that snow in the winter and that sticky, sweaty heat in the summer.
