August Chicago Weekend

 The first weekend of August 2011
we headed in to Chicago.
First stop: Cheering on Grandma Kathy and Great Aunt Helen
in the Susan G. Komen
60-mile 3-day Breast Cancer Walk.
 We are proud of our walkers!

 The boys had lots of fun handing out treats to the walkers!
They were big hams and a big hit
with the ladies!:)
 All that cheering wore out Carson!
But not Brady!

 Harmonica Jam session
with Ben's 2nd cousins
(Sorry for the bad camera settings!)

 Swimming in "Aunt" Mary's pool
Thank you, Mary and family,
for the (nap-inducing) fun!

 We met up with 2nd cousins, Grace and William Cord,
for a fun day trip to Chicago's Field Museum.
 We met "Sue" 
the largest, most complete
T-Rex ever discovered!
Megan's cousin, Scott, and Grace 
checking out some birds.

Thank you to the Cord family for hosting us
and treating us to some "authentic" Chicago foods. 
The "Polish" and Pizza were great!
We had a fabulous, family fun packed weekend!
