We had a blast in the city yesterday! Our morning started with a 7am photo shoot with Mimi at the beach in Evanston. Our friend Julie is an awesome photographer and she found a great location.
After the photos, Julie rushed of to shoot a wedding and we stayed to play a bit.
Just like always, Daddy played a lot too.
Before heading to breakfast we found a fun park and Jackson was thrilled to see a sign language alphabet chart.
Bryan was excited to try the Walker Bros. Pancake House that is referenced in Mean Girls. The food was delicious!
After breakfast we took a scenic drive down Lake Shore to try out Maggie Daley park. What a cool place! It's a huge industrial style park with a city backdrop.
Jackson was so brave and went down this big slide!
After we worked up a sweat we took Mimi to the Bean where Charley through a huge fit because, you know, she's three now and such fits are required to maintain your THREEnager status.
The highlight of the day was Crown Fountain. The kids loved running around in the water.
We headed home and heard snoring from both car seats within just a few minutes.
After a stop for groceries and a fancy Costco lunch, we pulled in to the garage at 3pm, NINE hours after we left!
It was an exciting and exhausting day!
