Family Weekend

This past weekend was such a whirlwind. My family (and extended family) came to visit and they all stayed with me because I had the apartment to myself while Jered was out of town for a wedding. There were eight (!!) people staying in our two bedroom apartment—but we had such a fun time.

I hosted my first dinner party of more than four people on Friday night, we explored the city and I got to pretend I was a tourist for the day on an architecture tour and at the Chicago Bean and then my aunt had a beautiful brunch at her place on Sunday. It was lovely. I was sad to see them go.


Sisters and cousins...



This is the traffic jam I was caught in on the way home from the suburbs... Stand still for more than an hour. I think it's time to leave Chicago...
