Babymoon/Snowmaggedon!!!

Well Chad and I went on our babymoon to Chicago, and had a great time. We left on Friday just before the snow hit. We went to the art museum, ate like kings, and tried to sleep in (I guess 9:00 am is sleeping in when you are parents of a 2 year old). Chad took me to Frontera, Rick Bayless's restaurant in Chicago. The food was absolutely INCREDIBLE!!!!!!!!! We also got to go get Garrett's popcorn and watch the entire superbowl in robes in our fancy hotel room:) We got a great deal on everything because apparently no one wants to go to Chicago in February. It was warmer there than it was in MD! It was a fabulous weekend. Our flight was canceled on Sunday so we also got one extra day together, which was a great blessing.

Well we came home to three feet of snow! We are currently getting another 12-24 inches now. It definitely looks like we have at least 4 feet of snow outside of our house. It is absolutely wild! We took Sofia out in it to just play and explore- it was crazy. You would step out into it and it came up past your knee!

It has been a nice break from all of our craziness lately. We did laundry, unpacked, and have just enjoyed spending time together (because federal government is still closed, Chad is home!) We haven't been picking up our house like crazy people to show it. The cabin fever hasn't set in yet, we are just enjoying each other:)

Here I am enjoying a non alcoholic beverage at the bar at Frontera. Notice the gigantic grin on my face!
