Summer Roadtrip I : 2Chicago

Colleen and Ambiana spent the days at the babywearing conference while Gaelen and I stayed in Palatine. We went downtown to meet them on Friday and took the train to Millineum Park...

...where Colleen and Gaelen frolicked in the face spittin fountian while Ambiana and I cheered them on. We also wandered a bit through the Taste of Chicago and the 10,000 people who were also there.

Both Gaelen and Ambiana liked the Bean which is a big mirrored...well "bean" that you can walk around and under.


Check out this sweet video I came across on YouTube, you can see "the bean" in it among other amazing places this dancing man has been.

We throughly enjoyed our time with Colleen's Mom and her family. Her sister Melissa was home for the summer (unfortunately no pic :() and we had some great whiffle ball games with her and Bill. Jack and Shirley stopped in to see us on our last night there and it was great to see them. On Sunday Colleen went to Lindsey's bridal shower while Gaelen and I went to see WALL-E which was good but not great but it was great to see my first movie since November of 2006!
