Friends, Family, and Photography

Monica's sister, Leah, flew in last weekend for a whirlwind tour of our great city and to spend some time with us. We had a blast taking her around town and getting to catch up on life. I also took advantage of our time downtown by taking some more artistic, city-scape type pictures. Here's a mix of the two...enjoy!

Of course, our trip wasn't all about taking pictures.... As we were walking on the famous Navy Pier, Monica recognized a family friend whom she has not seen in nine years! How random! Meet the Brenners! (from left to right: Leah, Monica, Kathy, Kaitlin, and Dana)



But the fun didn't stop there! As our final stop along the GeeFamily Chicago tour, we walked down to Moody Bible Institute and visited with our San Clemente buddy, Jenna. One of the main campus buildings is in the background...and if anyone who knows Jenna's mom, Jill, is reading this blog, make sure to ask her about the elevator incident when she dropped Jenna off...it's pretty funny!
