Our First Weekend Away

Ever. This was the first time both Mom and Dad were gone from the house at the same time without James. Mom and Dad flew to San Fransisco for a good friend's wedding and James was home here in Chicago with Liddy. And, a surprise guest who flew in for the weekend, Grandpa Mike. Every time I called home, which I hope wasn't a lot, I was assured time and again that everyone was having a wonderful time, that James was a complete angel and it was awesome. This helped me to relax and enjoy the wedding. Although it was a quick trip (just one night), we had fun and at the same time, could not wait to get home to James. We picked him up two trolleys while we were there and about every hour, we just kept saying how much fun it will be to take James back to San Fran when he's older.


Here's Dad with some of his fraternity brothers and of course, us. Mom and Dad but cleverly disguised as Meg and Doug :)
