Long Over Due is an Understatement.

I am really, I mean really bad at this blog thing.....I am going to try to be better. I have a lot for you to read and see though.
We went on several adventures this summer and here are the pictures to prove it.



Kristin and Baby Finley's shower. This was such a fun time! Kristin and Finley got some great gifts.


Including these awesome finger puppets modeled by Traci.



Then we went to the lake with some friends from our small group.


















The whole gang....



NEW YORK!!!
This was such a fun trip and we shared the fun with our good friends The Duty's.





Magnolia Bakery!!












































This was a cool exhibit in the MOMA that we were able to participate in. The artist would measure you and write you name on the wall.













Central park + 74 degrees = a perfect afternoon!!





Jay's birthday dinner








Fireworks on the Fourth of July!


Jay and his cool new hat from H&M


Bryant Park





And I saved the best for last....



I know it's not much of a picture but you get the idea:) Baby Booker will be making it's way into the work around April 12th. We are both so excited and can't wait to start this new adventure!!

Chicago!!



What a amazing city! I want to say that first. This was such a fun trip and if you haven't been to Chicago book you a ticket now! We had a blast and as you will notice...ate some really yummy food. Chicago is everything that NYC isn't, Clean & Friendly.











We did the museum thing....6 museums in 3 days. We are nerdy like that:)

This was the Field museum. It has the largest T-Rex in the world. I'm not going to lie, I LOVE dinosaurs. Ever since Jurassic Park in the 7th grade I've had a hidden obsession. The museum was really neat.


It had an "Underground" exhibit with bugs and stuff. We took it up a notch and made our own fun.







I Heart Dinos!


Jason enjoying a delicious Chicago style Hot Dog.








This was such a yummy stop!


My Boss is from Chicago and recommended that we eat here. This was our Anniversary dinner and it definitely did not disappoint!



The Chocolate cake was ginormous!


This next pic was probably the highlight of the trip. This breakfast stop was recommended by some friends of ours and this was the best advice we took the whole trip! I would consider myself a cinnamon roll expert, and I think I found my number one choice. Words CANNOT describe how crazy delicious these were. Just trust me on this one.





Art Institute


Millennium Park

Science and Industry Museum









Our last meal before we came home...Giordano's pizza. This was probably my favorite out of the 3 pizza places we went to.
We were pretty sad our trip had come to an end:(





We had such a great trip celebrating 3 years of marriage! Chicago was good to us and we plan on going back many more times...
