Chicago- Fourth of July Visit






Each year we try to go to Chicago for the 4th of July. It is becoming another one of our family traditions. During our visit we try to attend the "Taste of Chicago". It is a huge food festival downtown. It is always fun to ride the train downtown, eat some great food, and enjoy the people and sounds of Chicago.

The weather was perfect. Definitely didn't miss the humidity that we deal with in the south. The boys had a great time and so did Scott and I. It is just fun to watch the boys get so excited about riding the train, something I took for granted as a kid and growing up. We played, hung out, and just enjoyed our time together as a family.

We were also able to spend some time with friends and family. The boys got to see Papa, who they haven't seen since Christmas. They also had some playtime with cousin Colin, Unlce Joe and Aunt Jaime. Colin had his graduation party (8th grade) and they had a jousting/jumping blow up. The boys played and played. Guess who was tired at the end of the day?!

When you see Joshua, ask him where he went and what was his favorite part.
