Christmas in Chicago

We try to take a trip to Chicago every year to have brunch at the Drake, visit with my sister and her family, see all the lights and have fun shopping. This was Abel's third trip! So here are some pictures to highlight the trip.

A shot of Abel doing scales with Henry and Hannah - they are all three in gymnastics class!



Here's a cute shot of Adelyn and I in our brunch clothes. We found a new party dress for her - so cute- and on super sale at The Gap! Gotta love those super sales!



Here are some shots with Santa. He came walking around while we were brunching at The Drake and had presents for all the kids. We took some pictures - Abel was not so sure about Santa, but Adelyn warmed right up to him. She even grabbed at his beard - which made him VERY nervous. Abel agreed to get in on a photo when we all agreed to take one!




Then, we finished off the weekend with our obligatory picture in front of Christmas tree at The Drake. The tree is gorgeous every year (should be, it's always the same tree!) and it's fun to have a new picture every year. I thought all the pictures turned out really well!
