This little summer...(Part II)

One of the best things about coming to Chicagoland for the summer was getting to live with the Clark's. :) And Callie the dog. I've been really lucky to have the opportunity to get to know my in-laws better and it's been really fun. :) Scott and Sandy are two of the busiest people I've ever met, so there's always something going on and we've had some fun times helping out. :) The kitchen was being remodeled this summer so that was a learning experience. I learned a lot about cooking a meal using only a microwave, crockpot, and rice cooker. We had some nice dinners around the basement ping pong table.  :) And luckily we were able to see the whole kitchen remodeling process. And it turned out really beautiful. I'm going to miss it and I'm definitely going to miss them.

Callie had no problem adjusting to us living
here. Now she had two beds she can sleep on. 
Of course one of the things that we did when we
got here was to eat food in all of the places
that aren't in Utah. This is Portillos. :)
Super healthy. Well, I actually think that Bri
got a salad. This is all mine. :) Even the
chocolate cake shake, which is so weird and so
good. :) 

My first Mongolian Grill experience. It was
really pretty exciting. I'm not sure why I've
never been to one of these before...
And Culver's. We've been here a couple of times. I wish they
had fry sauce. Someone really needs to figure that out...


Another really awesome thing that we were able to do is go to Bulls vs. Heat playoff game. We sat in one of their box suites where they fed us dinner and soda. The game didn't go so well since the Heat really kind of beat up on the Bulls. Bri was pretty disappointed abou the game, but it was hard to be too sad when they had a dessert cart and told us we could pick whatever we wanted. Of course I chose the biggest brownie that I saw. And it was perfect. :)


My first time at Madhouse on Madison. :)
Benny the Bull disturbing people by showering
them with popcorn.
I got a Bulls shirt just for the occasion. I guess that means
that I'm a real fan now. :) 
All of us. :)
The awesome dessert cart. Isn't it beautiful?
We were so ready for this.

  1. Loved having you both here! Thanks for being sports about eating dinner in the dungeon on the ping pong table. Looking at these pictures reminds me that we did a lot in those 3 short months!
