Mr. Dude colored in his brand new coloring book and Abigail and I got to talk through out most of breakfast. It was glorious. Oh, and the food was great too. I had biscuits and gravy, scrambled eggs, bacon, grits, some apples and a few bites of Mr. Dude's leftover pancakes. The best part? I didn't have to do the dishes afterwards. All I had to do was pay and leave a tip!
We got to attend a rather entertaining evening of magic and philosophy headlined by Larry Hass at the Rhapsody Theater in Chicago this summer.
I truly regret to inform you that the new Portillo's Garden Dog is honestly really good.

One of the reasons I love my wife is her spontaneity. Thanks to her we got to ride Chicago's Ferris Wheel at Navy Pier one last time before it closed for good.
If you have a young child in school or daycare you’ve likely heard the song “Pop See Ko.” The band Koo Koo Kanga Roo has three versions of this popular camp song on YouTube. Each just as catchy an earworm as the next. https://youtu.be/LMxtwzroMTQ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pwn4beja1QE My son loves these songs...

We got to visit a couple of local Nashville breweries with our little ones.
Visiting the Zoo Lights at Chicago’s Lincoln Park Zoo is one of our annual traditions. We skip it when the winter’s are too cold to be outside at night comfortably for very long. This year, however, the December nights have been gorgeous for strolling around the zoo. We took a...
We got to attend the last week and had a blast. SkyWaitress was out of town for work so we brought GiGi (my mom) along. We enjoyed watching the game but also had snacks, drinks, and plenty of fun along the way with the various other activities the park offered.
My wife, Mr. Dude and I attended Boo! at the Zoo this past weekend and had a blast. We got to wear the Angry Birds costumes Abigail made and Mr. Dude was so proud of wearing. We are members of the Brookfield Zoo but, honestly, wouldn't have attended the event (or even known about it) without the generous invite to it by the Ferrara Candy Company for the invite.
