CHI-CA-GO

Two weekends ago, we headed out to the windy city of Chicago to visit the Melikers.  On our first full day there, we headed out to the suburbs to visit the Melikers and meet the new twins, Max and Molly.

Moses had a great time playing in the pool with Sammie.

Moses wasn't quite sure about Mommy holding Molly.

Here's Supermom, Amy, with the other twin, Max.

Matt and Aaron left to go to the grocery store and came back with the largest marshmallows ever. 

"YUMMY!  Nothing is too big for me to tackle!"

"Look how big it still is.....after two bites!" - Sammie

"Just little nibbles and it will last forever!" - Mandy

"Hey!  I think I have brain freeze!"

"TEETER TOTTER!!!"

Moses' buddy, Charlie, was also in town visiting some friends, so we spent the next day with them on Navy Pier.

The first stop was a train ride on Thomas the Tank Engine.

Then we headed over to the Chicago Children's Museum.

"Hey Charlie, whatcha' making over there?"

Cheesy picture that needed to be shared.

Charlie and Moses showing off their fire fighting skills.

Moses decided that a little jig would help fight the fires.

"Unlike Daddy, I'm quite the builder!"

"Man!  I'm pooped after all of that fire fighting and home building."

Moses discovered a new way to go down the slide....backwards.

Next stop was to dig for dinosaurs.

The next day was spent at Millennium Park with the Meliker twins.  Moses loved splashing around the spray grounds.

And the night was finished off with a horse drawn carriage ride.

"WOW!  Look at all of those TALL buildings."

"This is the life!"

"Thank you, Fraido, for the great ride!"

And the last day was spent on a boat ride.

"I'm not ready for all of this fun to end!"

We couldn't disappoint and had a little while longer before our flight, so we headed to the carousel.

"Thanks Chicago and Melikers for a GREAT time!"
