We went to Chicago this weekend. Unfortunately it was for a very sad occasion - Bonnie's cousin Rachel Smylie passed away in a tragic car accident while studying abroad in Cape Town, South Africa at only 21 years old.
Rachel will be missed, and the service & memorial were beautifully done. She would have loved to have met her cousin's new baby Eden.
Here are some pics & videos from the trip...

| Next stop - the house we stayed in. Uh, well, this was a fun kids house in the backyard. The actual house was amazing! HUGE! |

Her preferred mode of playing...
The piano sounds like a carnival! The microphone smells like a bwurp...
("bwurp" is what we call spit-up)
Edie Edie, ride the pony...
