The Rains Visit

We were so lucky to have the Rains Family come visit us! We had such fun time with them here. We took them to Cantigny, of course.




We stopped by the temple on the way to one of our other adventures. I was worried the gates would be shut because it was Tuesday and it's closed on Tuesdays. I said a little prayer that the gates would be open for some reason, and sure enough, when we arrived, we could see that the gates were open, though blocked with cones because they had repaved the parking lot. We parked across the street and were able to walk in. Such a sweet tender mercy.
Eli played hooky and came downtown with us the day we went to Millenium park, the Bean, and the Museum of Science and Industry.

Jake played hooky the day they went to the Shedd Aquarium (I skipped that one).
Jason loved having people to play Axis and Allies with.
I loved having someone to puzzle with!
And we all loved having cousins around. 
Come again soon!
