Our First Annual Trip to Chicago

In this post you will see some pictures of our trip to Chicago.  We had a wonderful time.  We went to to the Museum of Science and Industry and we also went to Macy's as well.  While we were at Macy's we ate at a place called the Walnut Room with a 3 story Christmas Tree and they had a Real Fairy that went from table to table casting sweet spells on us all.  While at the Museum they had a Special Charlie Brown Exhibit, so you will see some pictures of Charlie Brown and his crew.  We also got to see Santa in Chicago.  While at Macy's we got a chance to speak with him.  Soph and Nora both enjoyed it tremendously!
Thanks again for stopping in and we look forward to you coming back!!
The next post will be pics of some of the family we saw in Chicago.

Chopping Trees!

So it's that time again!! Yes Christmas time, and one of our favorite things to do is put up the Christmas Tree!!  Of course it all starts with the Hunt!!  So we took our yearly trip to the tree farm, "Henslers Nursery". This year we made major strides because it only took us about 3 hours to find our tree.  That timeline was because of 2 reasons... 1. We had a 6 month old Baby with us (Nora) and 2. Because Kristen had a hair appt.  (Which she still missed)  In this post you will find pics of the Hunt and the final product!  It of course was a lot of fun and Nora and Soph loved it!
Thanks again for stopping by and we will chat soon!
