Chicago Trip

The whole family took a trip up to Chicago last weekend for my cousin Jeanna's wedding reception and to see my Grandma Walker and Aunt Carol who flew in from South Carolina. It was a really nice trip. Both girls did GREAT on the airplane...we couldn't believe it! Mikaiya played with stickers the whole way both ways and Braenna slept. Gotta love the airlines though because when we arrived in Chicago, we discovered that our carseat bag containing Mikaiya's carseat and the base for Braenna's carseat conveniently did not make it there. Great bag to lose American!! So they gave us a loaner for Mikaiya and we belted Braenna's carrier seat in. Needless to say, it was a scary ride home and luckily our seats were delivered late that night because we were not taking our children anywhere else like that, especially not Mikaiya in the cheapest, most unsturdy loaner carseat you can imagine!

We were really busy while we were there. We all got to spend a lot of time catching up with Grandma and Aunt Carol, and it was so nice for them to get to spend all that time with the little ones! We went to Jeanna's reception on Saturday and then on Sunday we went to Harms Farm to go to the pumpkin patch. Harms Farm is my aunt and uncle's produce stand. Mikaiya had a blast there on the train and in the bounce house and we even let her pick out a pumpkin to leave for Grammy and Grampa.

Thanks for having us all Grammy and Grampa!!

Here's a link to the pics from the weekend: http://photos.walmart.com/share/p=667261225048729814/l=16943715/g=3342801/cobrandOid=1011/otsc=SYE/otsi=SALB
