last weekend we spent some time at my grandparent’s and then drove a couple of hours to spend a day in chicago.  jay had never been before so we had a good time driving and walking around the city…

we spent some time and had lunch in grant park overlooking lake michigan…

and then went to go see some sand dunes and spend more time on lake michigan…

…he loved the sand!

i’m so grateful that we’ve been able to go on several small trips this summer. even though we have a little one now, it is nice to still be able to travel and go and do and see things. i’m sure that will become a little more rare the more kids we have but for now, i am enjoying it :) hope you are having a wonderful week! be blessed by the Lord’s love and peace today.
