A Chicago Weekend

This past weekend Dan's family came down to celebrate his birthday on the 18th of September. Since we live so close to Chicago and had not visited since our moving to Indiana, we decided to head up to the windy city and see some sites...

Here's a few pictures to highlight our adventures:
The wonderful Shedd Aquarium...fyi teachers get in FREE!!!

Not much else is going on in our lives here in Demotte, IN. Dan is mid season in being the assistant soccer coach at Demotte Christian School. Meanwhile I am keeping rather busy at Crown Point Christian school trying to figure out how to be a Pre-K-8th grade computer teacher,5th-8th grade art teacher, a 6th grade reading and writing teacher and a network administrator...Life has truly been an adventurous journey that only God knows the plans for.
