Big Day to Chicago!!!!!

Tuesday, August 15 was our BIG outing to the downtown of Chicago.
Rob actually rented a 12 passenger van so we could all travel together.
I was happy and relieved that Kelly didn't have to drive! She had been up at night with the two little ones.
So off we go. 6 Kids. 3 Adults.
4 car seats. 1 stroller.
4 incredibly excited little GIRLS. 1 baby.
1 Boy who has been warned within an inch of his life to behave while we are at American Girl Place.

This pic is for Aunt Jill.

Shirt reads, "If you think I'm cute, you should see my Aunt."

The Kids.

The kids had so much fun playing and getting to know one another.
Everyday was a new adventure.
On Saturday, Kelly & Rob rented a bouncy house and had a BBQ for some friends and neighbours.
Rob set up the kiddy pool and the slip 'n slide, which was Tyler's favorite.
They played outside. They watched a movie with popcorn.
They drank pop. They giggled. They played musical beds. Just so fun.

Monday, August 14.

On Monday, I asked Kelly if she would mind dropping the kids and I off at Geneva Commons to do some browsing and shopping around.
Pottery Barn. Williams Sonoma. Bombay Kids. Crate & Barrel. Victoria's Secret.
I think West Edmonton Mall is in need of some new stores!

Beautiful Homes.

Some of the beautiful homes that were in Naperville.
If Ron should ever get transferred to Chicago, I know where I want to live!

And Baby Makes Six.....

Chipotle's.

After our walk on the river, we went to Chipotle's for dinner.
Chipotle's serves mexcian fast food like tacos, burritos, salsa, chips, etc.
The food was incredible and very reasonably priced.
All fresh veggies and organic meats.
Hunter & I had 3 soft tacos and Tyler had 4 hard tacos and it was really yummy.
I treated everyone to dinner here and 8 of us ate for $46. We couldn't have eaten at McDonald's for that price!
