Weekend Activities

On Saturday morning, I got up and drove to Chicago for Katie's bachelorette party. I met up with the girls for brunch at at cute place called Angelina's. After brunch, we did some shopping in a few neighborhoods before heading back to Michigan Avenue. Then we all went back to the hotel. I visited until about 8pm and then took a cab back to my car so I could head home. While I was gone, Phil took the boys to Will's soccer game and then out to lunch at a McDonalds with a 2 story play structure. They also watched the Michigan game and went to the park after dinner.  

On Sunday, we went to the Nature Center because they had "Music in the Woods." We were able to listen to some music, see some animals, and do a few activities. We had to leave mid afternoon because we had a neighborhood block party Sunday afternoon. We set up in the cul-de-sac and had a pretty good turn-out: 7 of the 11 houses on the block were represented. We grilled, played bean bags, had s'mores, etc. It was a lot of fun.
