Delayed Labor Day Weekend Recap....

So we headed to the "ville" for the holiday weekend and had a great time......we enjoyed the fling, it doesn't seem like much has changed from 20 years ago except people aren't winning as many REO Speedwagon mirrors, instead they are playing for bigger and better things......case in point hubbie felt it completely necessary to spend money in order to win this.......... The upside is that he won - the downside is the guy guessed he was 38 wah...wah....wah.....
The girls had a blast - so excited with tickets in hand they did pretty much every ride they could for their age......

Brooke's mouth was agape at all moments just loving life and I could just envision future trips to Cedar Point or Six Flags.
However our sensitive lil Brady man didn't fair as well.......the startle factor did not set well with him and he was VERY protective of his sister when she would ride a "big" ride he would cry and bury his head in my neck crevice scared until she got off......Nice little brother but you have gots to toughen up little man - we are demon drop bound.......
We also were able to spend some time with good friends and family - Chris and I realize this trip to the south west side of Chi-town always leaves us with so much adult time we don't know what to do with ourselves.......it's a nice change

Rachel's kids are the exact same age and they all play very nice with each other so much that we are able to relive old days and absurd conversations for hours on end .....or at least until someone decides to get within inches of Brady's Bat or Ball......then it's a slight referee moment and back to action......
And then we might as well be kid free when the cousins come into the picture - they are inseparable and loving on each other like no ones business........Thanks for all the supervision Lexi, Jake, John, & Nic......
Unfortunately we don't get out there as much as we would like to, but when we do we always have a great time!
