Family, Food, FUN...

Luis and Rachelle brought the boys up and spent a quick weekend with us and it was far too short, but so fun! They came up on Sunday and we had a chance to just talk for a while. The boys loved our Planet Earth series, which worked out well for us because I was loving getting to chat.  We went to the Shedd Aquarium and had a blast, and also went for pizza. How can you not?! I seriously love their little family and loved getting to spend some time with them, no matter how short. Rachelle and I even got a nice little walk on Michigan Ave, while retrieving some Garrett's popcorn; Well deserved girl time, while the boys were taken for a fun trip to Fry's. Oh, the little boys went too... Rachelle and I hit up JoAnn's fabrics because she is a rockstar and getting really great at quilting. (Rachelle, I mean. Although I am sure JoAnn is good, too.) We then stayed up late chatting as" only us Wegers" know how! Ha. We had such a great time and hope to see them again soon. I swear I go through withdrawals every time they leave. Here's a mess load of pictures that get me through those tough times! Enjoy... 

 Jackson was being so funny. I was in the other room and when I came out, look at what he had done so silently in the kitchen! He wanted a better runway for his planes on our dining room table and seriously did not make a sound moving all the chairs into the kitchen. So cute. 


 Monday we took our favorite little peeps out for some Chicago dogs, and the world's best crinkle cut fries! I finally caught a rare Jacob smile... What a stud. HE was flirting with a table of girls across the way--looks like trouble.




 Maybe I am an awful person, but this was HILARIOUS...Jackson smacked his head super hard against the glass. Talk about an up close experience with the beluga whales!



 Seriously the cutest brothers ever! I especially like how Jacob had to get right down on the floor to see the fish at the very bottom of the tank.




 Awwww. Penguin Playground. Aren't they soo cute?!


 Of course it would be foggy and rainy the weekend they decide to come... Maybe when I get around to editing photos, I'll just photoshop a nice pic of the city behind them:)


 I love his cute face... That lollipop never had a chance... And check out the gulls that flocked around us when I gave the boys some bread to throw for the duck... It was waaay better than when we went to feed the ducks at the pond. Kinda scary too.. Those gulls are crazy.
