We are officially spending the last night in our home tonight. It seems surreal that this time has finally come. It is exciting yet a little sad at the same time. We have really loved our home and will miss it. We have been keeping extra busy lately with organizing, packing and with Kyle getting through finals, it has been quite the semester. The sun has finally decided to show up so we have enjoyed some nice days outside on walks and at the park.
Easter was a nice weekend, it was fun watching Evelyn go around and pick up her eggs and find her little Easter bag. Here she is with her collection and her favorite, peeps and bubbles. Saturday we went with Kyle to Grand Rapids while he competed in his court competition, we are proud of him for advancing and doing so well.
Right after finals Kyle and I headed over to one last Lansing Lugnuts baseball game, and of course had to get a picture by the new Cooley Stadium, tuition dollars at work here people. As you can see it was also Thirsty Thursday, but of course no specials on soda.
After finals for Kyle, and with Evelyn and I at home a lot, we all needed a break from packing so we headed towards Chicago for the weekend. We made a little detour and stopped at University of Notre Dame. It was fun to walk around the stadium and see the architecture of the buildings.
We had to check out "Touchdown Jesus"
We had a really good time in Chicago together, it was nice to actually have some family time. That night we went out to dinner with some friends that use to go to Cooley and ate some yummy deep dish pizza. The next morning we enjoyed a full breakfast, then Evelyn and I went swimming at the hotel. The pool was on the 19th floor so you had a nice view of downtown. Later that afternoon Kyle went with his friend Aron to a Cubs game while Evelyn and I walked around downtown and enjoyed some shopping. Luckily I was able to find some cute stuff at Nordstrom Rack, cause I just couldn't leave with empty hands. Here Evelyn is enjoying all the sites from her stroller.
Now that we are recharged we better get all the packing done we still have to do. Next post we'll be from California!!
