Jamie has been searching and searching for tickets to Hamilton and just happened to find a pretty good deal on tickets in Chicago on a weekend that Marc happened to be off of work. And being the generous parents that they are, they bought four tickets instead of two and Josh and I got to tag along. It was INCREDIBLE and definitely lived up to the hype. The boys had a ton of fun visiting with them for a few days before the play but the morning after the play was when the real party started. Well, the party ended with a trip to the ER for Oliver. He took a bad bounce at the babysitter's house and wouldn't put weight on his right leg after he woke up. Not wanting it to be another break, we took him into the hospital. Whew.
It was a doozy of a week that ended on a high note and then not so high note. But we are SO glad Nana and Papa came to visit and can't wait to see them again. The boys love them and I find myself extremely grateful for their love in our lives. Until next time! PS. They didn't find any fractures but decided to put him in a splint and give it a week to heal. Poor kid! He has spent more time in a cast/boot/splint this year than not!

| Lion's Den Gorge was beautiful! |
 |
Papa kept calling him a
Mountain Goat. :) |
 |
| Way to go, big boys! |
 |
Papa is pretty good at entertaining
little boys outside. |
 |
| We love a good hike! |
 |
A little crunched for time (thanks for that, Chicago
traffic) but still smiling! |
 |
Busted out my Alexander Hamilton
for the tolls on the road to see Hamilton.
Woah. |
 |
Made it to the theater with about three
minutes to spare. Just enough time to
take a photo. |
 |
| Amazing! |
 |
| My favorite handsome Chap, right here. |
 |
| Best Date Ever. |
 |
| Thank you, Marc and Jamie! |
 |
In our haste to get to the theater we
didn't have time to stop for dinner. So,
overpriced pretzles,
peanut M&Ms and a granola
bar i found in my purse at intermission
were the perfect substitute. |
 |
| Marc, the Selfie King |
 |
| Such a fun night! |
 |
I sure do love this guy...and Josh. I love
Josh most and I love Hamilton and
Lin-Manuel Miranda...but Josh most. |
 |
| All smiles! The show was fantastic! |
 |
| Delicious! |
 |
There is nothing better than dinner at
11:30, especially when that dinner
is Portillo's. |
 |
| Snuggles with Nana. |
 |
| Hospital visit with the iPad |
 |
Thanks for the fun week, Nana and Papa!
We love you. |
 |
| Poor Oliver. |
