Chicago

On April 14th we were able to get away for the weekend and go to Chicago with Scott and Ashley. We had a great time! It was good to get away but we missed our little guy like crazy and it was only TWO days!!! Makes me wonder how on earth I'm going to be able to go back to work on the 25th :(. Landon stayed with Mom and Dad for the weekend. Unfortunately he was not in the best of spirits on Saturday (he probably missed us:) but Sunday was better for Grammy and Gramps.
We stayed at the Waldorf Astoria hotel in Chicago. It is a gorgeous 5 star hotel that we got a super deal on because of Scott's corporate rate with Net Jets. We did some shopping, walked around Navy Pier, went on a boat tour and ate at a few great restaurants. For dinner we went to Fogo de Chao the brazilian steakhouse. It was very good but that was a lot of meat!! We are all full so like the old party poppers that we are we ended up going back to the room and playing a few competitive games of Sequence then we all crashed. HAHA I guess that is what parenthood does to you.
The suite was larger than our apartment in Carmel...crazy!

Oh Scott....;)
