To New Adventures!

It has literally been over a month since I last wrote... which tells you how life has been :) A little crazy, to say the least!
At the beginning of last week, I was wrapping up my final class and Chris was wrapping up work. Then Thursday we headed out to the lake in Elkhart with friends for a few days and to Chicago for two nights after that!
The lake was amazing.... I haven't laughed so hard in months. It was wonderful to spend time with friends, eat good food and drink beer and wine, all while riding on a boat. It was the perfect way to decompress and relax after one of the craziest years thus far. Thanks again, Brian and Heather!!!!
Chicago was fabulous as well...
we somehow managed to cram in a trip to the planetarium, aquarium, field museum, Sears (now Willis) tower, and Museum of Science in Industry all in less than 3 whole days! OOO plus a delicious deep dish pizza at Lou Malnati's. YUM! I think we also walked about 20 miles total. Thank god, after all that beer and delicious food at the lake.
I must say, the aquarium was the absolute best. If anyone ever gets a chance to go to Shedd, GO!!!!!! You will LOVE it. The planetarium was... well.... interesting :) I loved seeing the stars and the Apollo 13 exhibit but there was an obvious lack of deodorant happening within the building on what was a VERY hot day. That coupled with the spinn
y ride/exhibit that almost made us throw up REALLY made for a pleasant experience :) We definitely had a good laugh. Oh, and almost falling asleep in the 3D movie we saw. What a stellar couple we are.
Anyway, all in all it was great. Chicago is a very cool city and I love that it is right by the lake. That and city life is always invigorating. So now we are all charged up (thanks to the vacation and for me, my two cups of coffee this morning) and ready to pack and ship on out of Indy and off to Arizona by Monday! AHHHHH........
New adventures ahead. Open mind, open heart, endless possibilities... :)
Lots of midwest love (probably for the last time til I write to you again from our new home in Scottsdale). XO.

NEW HOME.... Hello, Southwest! OLD HOME....... Bye Bye, Midwest!
