November/December 2013

Katie's first tumbling meet!



How do you celebrate signing an employment contract? If you're Luke, you get a rowing machine, of course!

Caught these two doing this and couldn't resist . . . 

Sarah says, "I want another treat!"

Child #2 and Child #3 are insane. 


CHICAGO! --We got to tag along with Luke to THE largest medical conference in the world: RSNA. (All these years that Dad has been going, I never knew it was the largest--about 54,000 attended this year.) Scott and Nora met us there, and we had a great time (with our 54,000 new best friends, of course!). 
Nightly swimming at the hotel was a highlight . . . 

. . . as were the gourmet hotel breakfasts. 

We had an absolutely magical girls' lunch and shopping trip at American Girl Place! The four of us also went to a fabulous stage production of "A Christmas Carol"--so fun! 


Meanwhile, the boys + Sarah checked out the aquarium and the children's museum.

Sarah's only decent nap in four days--at the outdoor skating rink. What a trooper!

An amazing city!!
