Take a Little Trip

This summer we took a little day trip to Weston, MO. Bear had to have a little surgery (cough) so we took advantage of the time and went to downtown Weston.

 We had a great time eating at a little tea room and shopping their downtown main street! It was a great getaway!

 Unfortunately, Bear didn't have as much fun as we did : (  He had to wear the cone of shame for a few days...

 This is what he thought about it...

The funniest part was when we noticed him looking at our torchier lamps like, "how the heck did they get that thing on me?!"

Chicago!

This summer, Chris and I were able to go to Chicago for a weekend trip! We had a Community Life retreat and were able to do some sightseeing too. We had a SUPER early flight and lucky for us, Dianna just happened to be in Chicago at the same time, so we were able to see her for a bit! Not to mention, freshen up in her hotel room! We rode the subway from the airport and navigated the city like pros, pretty good for these suburban Texans.

 We took a trolley/double decker bus tour around the city which was awesome. We were able to stop at many different fun places and get off and look around. Then we just hopped back on when the next bus or trolley came along!

 We were on the top of the double decker bus.

 Here we are at the Navy Pier!
