Months ago I saw a commercial for the Michael Jackson Cirque du Soleil show and had to see it. Since I know my Dad and Anna and Jess love Cirque also, we planned to go this summer. James' parents watched the kids and James and I headed to Chicago for a much needed adult weekend! After fighting the lovely Friday afternoon Chicago traffic, we arrived at Jess and Justin's new apartment at the same time as my Dad and Anna. Justin met us out at dinner and then we all headed to the United Center for the show. I have to say that I absolutely loved the music (of course!), but there was definitely not enough Cirque. It was more of a tribute to Michael Jackson than a Cirque show, but it was great!

We went out on Justin's friend, Zach's boat for the
afternoon. Thank you Zach!! |

We passed a really cool cake shop on the way to Jess and Justin's place
Another great weekend!

Except for poor Nolan who was stung at the pool
while we were gone and his eye puffed up. |
