Chicago with the Link's 2013

Papa and Grandma Sharon took us all to Chicago again and we had such a good time.  We rode the train up on a Friday morning and came home on Sunday afternoon.  It was a short trip, but it was just long enough for the kiddos.  It was a memorable trip for many reasons, some good and some bad (Lola had to go to the ED on Saturday and Ainsley puked on Sunday).  Luckily, those were the only low points.  The high points were..... the rest of the trip, Shedd Aquirium, the Disney Store, the Auto Show, Weber Grill, Rock Bottom Brewery, swimming, happy hour and the family races around the hotel! It was a fun little getaway!  Thank You Papa and Grandma Sharon! We love you.

SO EXCITED to be on the train!
Yay for trains!
Grandma Sharon and the girls watching/listening to the diver in the tank.
So cool!  I wish I had a wall like this at my house - and also the staff to take care of the fish;)
special moments.
This was my favorite thing to see!  I think sea horses are very cool!
Ryan and Aaron were resting - worn out from all the big fishy they saw!

After the aquarium, our ride was awaiting...
I love this picture - look at Addysen's excitement!

After the Disney store, Anna fell asleep... and look, she sleeps like a lady;)
Grandma and her girls!

DINER AT WEBER GRILL
dinner time silliness:)


AFTER DINNER
Addysen decided to lay down in a bush.... We had nothing to do with it:)
Everyone else had gone back to the hotel, and we decided we weren't done yet...
and neither were Grandma and Papa...
So after Papa gave Addysen a woopin, we went and got some drinks to take back to the hotel.
And when the drinks were done, so was Papa.  But it looks like the little ones outlasted him!
And the girls ended the trip with a dip in the hot tub.  What a great trip!

I just realized that I didn't have any pictures of Nate, so I'll leave you with Uncle Nate and Aunt Mary's race around the hotel.
