College Family Back Together Again!!

The Russell's (Devin and Marlena) and the Lindsey's (Chris, Vicki & Genna) traveled to visit us for the holiday weekend. They came in Thursday night and left Monday morning. We had so much fun seeing each other and experiencing some time in Chicago.

Friday, we went to the Lincoln Park Zoo (again). It is fun however many times you go! Always something new to see! Genna especially loved the apes...
...and the polar bear.Later that night, we hung out at the Dalings' house and watched the Wheaton fireworks.

Saturday, Marlena and I had the chance to babysit Genna and take her to the French Market with us while Chris and Vicki had some "date time" and saw Wicked. Devin and Ben golfed. In the evening, we went to Claim Jumper with some friends from church.

Sunday, we headed to church then to Sweet Tomatoes (Marlena's request) for lunch. Devin and Marlena had to head home to Nashville after that, but Chris and Vicki ..and Genna.. stayed for another night.After Genna's nap on Sunday, we headed to our community pool, or more like waterpark, and had a blast! We discovered the tubing slide and all went down it a few times.
Genna loved the water!I'm sad that they are all now gone, but it makes it even more fun to see each other again! I'm just glad they had this chance to visit.The best part was having my crazy college girlfriends around once again!
