Toronto Get-a-way

Our first adult night out with the Howards in a long time, it was great!

Bears' fans were everywhere!

A toast to a good game and great friends!

The first weekend in November Blake and I took a trip to Toronto, Canada to see our friends Kris & Liz. Although we were there in July with the boys, this time was just for the adults. Liz's mom was staying with them for the week and watched their adorable daughters the whole time we were there.

Most of our time was spent talking, there never seems to be enough time for us to catch up, let alone talk about everyday life occurrences. We treasure our friendship so much because although we don't see each other often, we can make up time we've missed in a matter of minutes. They took us to a great restaurant our first night there and we literally sat for hours, eating and talking. On Sunday we hopped onto a train to Toronto for the game. The Bears won (just barely) but they won so our spirits were very high. After the game we grabbed a bite to eat and went to a show called, "Rock of Ages". I can't tell you how much fun we had there, a musical set with music from the late 70's and early 80's, it doesn't get much better than that for me.

We had to catch an early flight home on Monday morning and the moment we landed we knew we were back...there was a voicemail waiting saying Luke was sick. An ear-infection...nothing like a welcome back!! I'm so grateful to Dana for watching the boys for 2 nights (one of them not such a great one with Luke)! We can't wait to do it again!
