This past weekend we drove to Chicago to visit some friends for the weekend. We got to the city on Friday evening and met Dan, Katie, Alex, Andy, Terri, & Brian at their favorite pizza place in Lincoln Park. Matt did great even though it was WAY past his bedtime and he only napped for 30 minutes in the car. On Saturday morning we went to our favorite breakfast spot which was only a block from our hotel. I have no idea how to say the name, but it is called Pierrot Gourmet. We then headed over the Navy Pier to the Chicago Children's Museum. We got there before it opened so beat the crowd a little bit, but it was really busy when we left. Matt had a lot of fun and was good that he could run around and burn off some energy. We went to Rock Bottom Brewery for lunch and then back to the hotel for a nap. That night we headed out to John & Heather's house which was about an hour outside the city. It was so nice of them to host and great that we got to see everyone. John, Heather, and Aubrey of course were there as well as Alex, Kathleen & Henry, Brian, Jen & Gavin, Dan, Katie, & Ben. Matt did great again staying up late. He was very intrigued by their dog and that kept him entertained most of the night. He even ended up petting her before we left. Sunday morning we went to Pierrot Gourmet again before heading out.
