Fun in Chicago

We got to take a quick trip this weekend to Chicago for godson Ezra's baptism. It was wonderful to hang out with the Vinson clan and Wes Pope, and see the sights. The weather was fantastic, the kids had a blast playing, and we had fun catching up with dear friends.

A hot day at Wrigley Field, and the Cubbies won!

Ezra, Sadie-Kate, Giacomo and Ruby - great pals!

Island time

You can't go wrong with island time!

Walking up the (steep) bluff was a little difficult holding Giacomo, especially for a klutz like me!
Giacomo and Sierra had a grand time
