Family in Chicago!

It takes forever for me to post anything--buttt I wanted to make sure that I blogged about my family coming to Chicago! It was greaaaat! I enjoyed every second of having them here. The weather was surprisingly wonderful (for Chicago standards) and it was fun to lug them around and show them the sites/sights of Chicago.


All of these pictures are completely out of order, but here goes:




Chance and I at the Science Museum, which was so fun and interesting, by the way!!




Astronaut Angela--Chance refused, anyone surprised? =)




Chance and I in front of the museum of science



I took my parents to the Bongo Room-they agreed, it's amazing!!! Anytime you're in Chicago stop for a bite of their white chocolate pretzel pancakes--yum yum!



Mom and Shawn on Lake Michigan!



You can't see our toesies, BUT we waded in the water, which was freezing!!


Fam in front of the museum of science (totally out of order, sorry!)



Shawn went for a swim in Lake Michigan, at night, in the winter!! CRAZY kid...



but major PROPS!


Shawn and Dad earlier that week.

It was an incredible trip and I'm so glad that they came. I've really missed having my parents around and hadn't seen them since the wedding. I can't wait until Christmas.

Thanks Mom and Dad for making the effort to come to Chicago. It meant a lot! Love you guys--and thanks for tugging along, Shawn. I hope we weren't "too uncool" for you.
