Thursday night my parents got into town and Friday morning Carol's family left to head back to Virginia. My parents had offered to watch the kids so Dennis and I could get away again this year. So, we left Friday morning for Chicago.
Friday, Dennis worked in Chicago while I enjoyed reading my book at a coffee shop, shopping along Michigan Ave., and then taking a nap in the hotel. It was a perfect day. And, so nice to shop and try stuff on without having kids in tow. We then went to an amazing french restaurant for dinner. It was so so good. We ended the night with fireworks at the Navy Pier.

Saturday, we did a bit of shopping again. We also went to our favorite restaurant in Chicago, The Purple Pig, for lunch. For dinner we went to RPM which was opened by a celebrity couple I love. It was a fantastic meal also! Then we enjoyed a comedy club. It was such a great day.
Sunday we had a nice breakfast and then headed back home. The kids did well while we were gone. Leah took all her bottles great (I pumped while I was in Chicago). It was so nice of my parents to watch them and take Evan to Tae Kwan Do and his first Football game too! We took my parents out to dinner Sunday to thank them.
I can't wait till next year!!
