We spent a few days (too short of a trip!) in Chicago visiting with the Blackhams. This was my first time going to Chicago in the summer and it was a blast! (It's great in the winter too, but its nice to see things at different times of the year). We got to watch Kristen practice her marching band skills, visit downtown Chicago (Navy Pier fireworks show), downtown Naperville (the rowboats), and go to a Cubs game! We can't wait to go back again!

Chicago 2010
Yes, we went to Chicago in August. And yes, I feel like I will never be up-to-date on blogging! But nonetheless I wanted to make a post for our trip (memories and all :-)!)

Funny story about the above and below picture. I am intent on watching the game and it is getting near the end of the last inning. I see the kids sitting below us wearing their hats in ways I've never seen so I turn to my left to ask Justin, "Hey why are these kids wearing their hats that way?" and below is the image I see, much to my surprise! Apparently in baseball, or at least at the Cubs games, there is something called a 'rally hat' that you do when you want your team to rally with runs. Now I'm in the know but at the time I was wondering who is this man I married...
