About a week before we moved, Brent's family decided to come and visit the Midwest to see their two sons/brothers/uncles. We hung out for a few crazy days in downtown Chicago and had fun visiting Scott & Amy. Everyone then headed to Iowa to see the corn fields and we of course had to take them to see Nauvoo. We spent a couple of days there and then we came home and packed up the place. It was really nice of Brent's sister (Sharon) and neice (Ky) to help us haul all ourselves and our stuff back to Utah. I don't know if they fully realized what they were getting into when we told them we were driving straight through the night. It went by pretty fast (except Wyoming of course) and Kennedy did really well considering sleeping the night in the car. We couldn't have made it without them and are still indebted to them. Thanks guys!
My favorite part of downtown Chicago....the beach. It is crazy cool. They import palm trees and it is just awesome to have the skyscrapers right next to the beach. Loved it!!!
Kennedy had A BLAST hanging out with her cousins :)
Brents killer bike race tan line. His legs were the best though. When he wore flip flops in downtown people actually were laughing at his distinct tan line. Too funny!
Crazy cousin Brin!!!
At the Lincoln Park Zoo
Nauvoo Trip - Carthage Jail
This was the last day of the trip before we headed back home to start packing up. This was a temper tantrum at its best and right in one of the most spiritual places. Hopefully the walls to the jail were thick enough to drown out the screams. Needless to say Kennedy was all "vacationed out" so we headed home before everyone else to give this girl a nap. Funny thing is, if I remember right, she never did fall asleep in the car.
