Memorial Weekend 2010

So this Memorial weekend was absolutely wonderful. We had Ryan's entire family at our house for 3 days, which went by WAY too quickly but was incredible while it lasted. Ryan's parents came from Michigan and his brother Scott and his girlfriend Jenny came all the way from Baltimore. Our little 2 bedroom townhouse was crowded, but we had so much fun together. We can't wait until we get to see them all again!:-) This is a pretty long post but Jenny was so wonderful to take tons of pics for us so I wanted to share a lot of them with everyone!

We started off the first day heading downtown and seeing some sites. We began our trip downtown at the planetarium because it has such a wonderful view of the skyline as you can see...

It was VERY windy here and little one just wanted to run, but we somehow got a quick family pic.

Unky Jigs was so much fun...this was just the beginning of the playing they did together:-)

Playing in the grass with Chicago in the background.

Unky Jigs entertaining again...

Run, run, run, its all we want to do lately.

I love my Unky Jigs! He's going to be such a good Daddy someday, such a natural...

Our next stop was "The Bean"...awesome place for some pictures, of which we took a lot:-)


Inside the bean looking at our reflection.

Fun with Nana and Papa!

Silly billy!

One of her favorite games was walking back and forth over Nana's legs...

Getting the air out of the mattress was a family affair:-)

Riding Nana's "Pony"

Our favorite "Nana Chair"

Nana and Papa bought me popsicles and I LOVED them!

There is a story behind this running with the baby on his head, but you'll have to ask Scott to get the details:-)

Playing golf with Daddy and Unky Jigs

Nanna bought us a watering can that we played with all weekend:-)

Contemplative...

Look what I can do Papa! Like my crab pool?

More fun with Unky...

Helpin a girl out...

Mmmmmm...Nana's mac and cheese!

Everyone right before the weekend was over and we had to take Scott and Jenny to the airport:-(

Luckily Nana and Papa got to stay one more night so we could play a little more!

Pretty girl!

Just had to add this picture Jenny took of our Lorilyn...such a precious moment!

Thanks again everyone for coming, we loved every second and can't wait until we see you again!
