Fourth of July Fun

These pictures speak for themselves when it comes to our Fourth of July weekend. A couple of speed bumps, but all-in-all another outstanding weekend.

Steve and I were all ready to enjoy an adult afternoon at Wrigley on Friday, but a miscommunication with our sitter meant giving up our date to take Sam. The outing was equally as successful as our Father's Day trip, so it was actually a big win for all of us.

We dodged the rain on Saturday morning and made our first trip to Millenium Park. We scored $6 parking downtown (totally unheard of) and discovered that there is free live music for kids and families every day of the week. We'll definitely be going back soon.

On Saturday evening we stopped in at a friend's barbeque. They happen to have a dog, Baxter, and Sam fell in love instantly. He couldn't get enough of playing catch and getting doggie kisses. Too bad I forgot to bring a clean diaper and we had to depart early!

We spent Sunday afternoon at Ravinia for another outdoor concert. This time the sun was shining brightly and there was absolutely no downside to the outing -- it was a perfect way to end the long weekend!
