Jelly Fish, Family & Fun

When you take
2 boys
1 giant back pack full of supplies, toys, DVD player, change of clothes
1 bag full of snacks
1 stroller
&
1 large camera to document all the fun you are going to have downtown Chicago...

You don't actually get that many pictures because you are trying to haul all your stuff and kids and not lose or break any of them.

***side note, I did drop and temporarily break the camera while running down the wrong entrance chasing the boys into the dolphin show, but it works now...all's well that ends well!:)
Ry may not agree, haha!

Last weekend we had the super fun chance to spend the weekend with a few of the Sapp family members at my moms house. My cousin Amy & her hubby Adam stayed with us & her mom Mary, Aunt Cindy and our sweet cousin Max stayed at my moms house and we packed in a weekend of fun. On Friday we headed to the Shed Aquarium and although it's a pricey little excursion, to see Griffin's amazement it was worth it!


Some cousin/jelly fish love:)



ALL boys & mommies were amazed by this huge wrap around tank with sting rays, turtles and sharks!



Then we hit up the "Happy Feet" 3D show



And before we headed out to a really delicious dinner at Scozzi's (you made all my dreams come true butternut squash ravioli), God really knocked our socks off at the Jelly Fish display. Aren't these things just amazingly creative & entrancing little creatures. His creation never ceases to amaze me, the detail to even things buried deep beneath the water is astounding.

Loved time to celebrate, play, chat & laugh with family...
just sad I didn't get a group shot, oh well!
