3 Brunettes and a Blonde

On Saturday, my mom, sister and I headed to Chicago (driving compliments of brother-in-law Jamie) and went to see Legally Blonde the Musical.

My dad and Ryan watched the babies (toddlers?? yikes!...babies) while we had our girls day out. While we were gone, Layla and Shea were treated to their first trip to Chuck E. Cheese. It sounded like they had quite the fun day themselves!!! Anyway, the musical was very cute and we had good seats and we could actually see the actors (which is always a bonus). I loved the dancing and the dogs featured in the musical were very cute.

After a fun little meet up and photo shoot with Aunt Joan, Penny and Hank (hello and thanks for the great pictures, Hank!!!), we headed to the Melting Pot for dinner.

Remember the crazy New Year's Eve experience we had at the Melting Pot? If not, click here to read the story. Anyway, due to that crazy experience, we were given gift certificates so that we would come back to the restaurant...and so to the Melting Pot we went. (I am always calling (or having Ryan call!) customer service if we have a bad experience in a restaurant/store. In fact, I just received our brand new microwave this week....whole different story though!) This time the service and food were great so we were happy (and very full) campers.

And how can I leave a post without a picture or two of Ms. Tornado, oops I mean Layla :-) She has taken a newfound interest in taking everything off bookshelves, tables, etc. I believe she is in an exploring stage, so here she is exploring her little heart out (I mean, how can you deny a child a book?)!!! You should see her eyes light up at the library!! Don't worry, Joan, Penny and friends, I keep her under control :-)
