CHICAGO

The last part of July we headed to Chicago for a quick visit since we were not very far away! We stayed right by the magnificent mile, went to the Cubs vs Cardinals game at wriggly field, had too much amazing pizza, went on a night tour of the river that runs through the city and lake Michigan, went to the Shedd Aquarium, went shopping, and went to navy pier! We had a blast and we all loved Chicago!

INDIANAPOLIS


This summer for Austins work, we headed to Indianapolis. Of course the only summer we're there, they break all sorts of records for high temperatures. It was the hottest summer in Indianapolis history. Not only was it hot, but it was dry. Really dry. They also broke the record for the driest month of June and they are in a serious drought. In other words it was one HOT and DRY summer but we still had a lot of fun. Camden and I kept ourselves busy with the other wives and kids. We had fun but we are sure glad to be back home with family! Here is a summary of what we did:
