Fun with the Family!

After their Nauvoo trip, Aunt Heidi and Uncle Jim came back to Chicago with my parents and Lacy. We were so excited to take them to the market for our Saturday morning ritual! Lace and us went running and met up with everyone else at the market.
Jacoby loves to go to the market because he gets to try lots of new foods. He was liking the raspberries! Everyone at the market knows Jacoby as the little guy who is always in jammies. It's early and I don't have time to dress him before we leave for the run but it is cute how every knows him.

My mom had to try lots of new things at the market to cross them off her list so we were busy sampling things like ground cherries and French strawberries. Who knew there were such things?


We ended up getting so much stuff that we took Jacoby out of the Bob and put everything in it and my Dad pushed it around. It worked like a charm!


Then we came home and got to eat our fun things! We gave Jacoby corn for the first time and the Iowan heritage came out in him. He loves his corn!!!


Jim and Heidi had never been to Chicago and we love showing our city off so Jarod put together a drive tour. He went and picked them up at their hotel dressed like this with the sign. Yep, that's my husband!


I think my Dad was a little embarrassed that he had to ride in the back but Jarod was insistent that he was the driver. They were off to pick up the Millers and they had a great time!
It was so much fun having everyone here and taking them to all of our favorite places!
