Chicago Trip and Long Weekend

Before I get into our trip to Chicago, here is a picture from last Saturday. Cheering on our Tennessee Vols and Georgia Dawgs. At least one team won.... (who is smiling bigger?) Thanks for having us over, Robert!


Now for Chicago. I love this town! Sean and Ashlea were great hosts and we had a wonderful time. We ate deep dish pizza, saw the Cubs get a grand slam and beat the Mets in Wrigley Field, wandered down the Magnificent Mile, took a history tour boat ride onto Lake Michigan, saw the impressionists at the Art Institute, and took pictures at the Bean. Saturday night we also met up with some friends from UT, Lindsay and Jocelyn. Great way to spend a weekend!

We had a great Labor Day weekend celebrating Mallory's Sweet 16. Cannot believe she is 16 years old. She had friends over from her new school to spend the night. We went and saw All About Steve (don't waste your $$) and ate pizza and cookies and cream ice cream cake. Mal had a blast opening presents. We had so much fun and were so happy to see her so excited. We celebrated her all weekend long which, for us, was the perfect way to spend a weekend.

Hope your holiday was great!
