September Travels

We had a fun month of September  - 3 vacations in 4 weeks!

First we went to St. George to meet Jamie's family from California - we stayed in a nice condo and had fun swimming and playing tennis.  We had 3 SeaDoos and enjoyed our time at Quail Creek Reservoir: wakeboarding, cliff jumping and playing in the water!



Next we went to the George's ranch near Flaming Gorge and had a relaxing weekend outdoors.  We went fishing, horseback riding, hiking and sightseeing...it was beautiful!



Then we headed to Chicago to play and meet up with William's family!  After a few initial bumps (lost luggage and carseat, no baby crib at the hotel, phone call at 2 in the morning alerting us of our delivered luggage), we had a fabulous time!  We saw an awesome Cubs/Brewers game at Wrigley Field...Cubs were down by 4 in the bottom of the 9th and came back to tie, then to win in the 12th!  We hit Shed Aquarium, Brookfield Zoo, the Art Institute, Magnificent Mile, Navy Pier...all the touristy places. :)  We also got to visit with some of William's extended family and show off our fabulous Kate.  She did so well traveling...and made immediate friends everywhere we went!  People on the airplane and at the Cubs game were way more interested in Kate and her bag of tricks than anything else. :)





We had a great month!  We're so lucky to be able to travel and to have such a patient, adorable little traveling companion!
