Quick Fun with Omie and Al

Omie and Al took an Eastern Eurpean vacation. On their flight home, they had a long layover in Chicago, so we got to spend some time with them. Thank you, Al, for booking the layover so we could see y'all! Luckily, their plane arrived a little early, so we were able to see some of Cade's baseball game. I should add this was their teams first victory of the season, so that was exciting. Some very happy fans at Cade's game. I took several pictures and in each one somebody had a goofy look to them and this was the best one, even though Emma looks psycho.

Al with Emma. Al is so sweet with the kids.

After lunch, we made our way to Uncle Julio's for a delicious lunch. I have to add this to remember that on the way to eat I had my mom jump out of the car at a stoplight to run some almonds to Cade in Brett's car. Cade was complaining that he was starving, so Omie saved the day. It was like a Chinese Fire Drill, just like we used to do when we were young :)

Emma with crazy eyes in the picture above, now Maddi with a silly face.

I love these people!

So sweet...After lunch, we were going to try to go to the Willis Tower to the Skydeck, but we realized I forgot to bring Cade's tennis shoes. We went over to Dick's to buy him some new shoes and it took so long for him to choose that we didn't know if we had enough time to go there. We decided to go play putt putt golf. It ended up being a better choice than the skydeck and we all had fun playing golf.

Our crew, minus Brett.

Miss Em didn't want to play golf, but she had a great time hanging out doing her thing.

After golf, we made a stop to Oberweiss for ice cream. Yum!

Then it was time to say our goodbyes. Omie and Al had to catch their plane back to Texas :(

I wanted to show the new shoes Cade chose. Bright orange. Lovely!

Hugs all around!

We had a great day with Omie and Al and are so glad we got to see them, even if just for a few hours.

After we took Omie and Al back to the airport, I took Maddi to a graduation party for Patience. Maddi looks up to Patience as a dancer and Patience has been very sweet to Maddi. There are 6 girls graduating this year, and Maddi is going to miss them so much.
