We started our weekend journey Saturday after Danny got off work- and arrived late to his parents place to have some great food that his mom had waiting for us. At 9:45 pm that night....... we heard from Jed that Mandy had "the baby" which we learned his name is Julian!And that is when the plan that Danny and I had schemed days before was actually going to work! THE PLAN: go to the BLACKHAWKS- red wings game on Sunday- meet Julian on
Monday and back to the next hockey game on Tuesday. It was Perfect!Sunday we had breakfast with Danny's parents, went to Chelios' for some beers and Coney dogs. My dad and some friends met us here- then we all ventured over to the game together. If you would like to know the score of the game... it will not be disclosed here (you can ask Danny). :)
Then there was Dinner- meeting of the fathers- and it
seemed to go very well! We were all pretty tired from the long day at the game, and with all of the traveling, so it was a perfect low key dinner.The next morning we dug up some hostas- and were able to bring back something else from Danny's parents house back to ours in Chicago :) Our drive to Rockford seemed to be a very quick drive! We had a awesome time playing with Owen- playing with rocks, pitching and batting with his new ball and bat and just running around with all 4 dogs! I love this photo of Danny with Julian..... too cute! He is a beautiful baby boy and we can not wait to see him and again!
The rest of out trip flew by.... driving back to Detroit to spend a few hours with Ari, Parker and Kristen. We drove to the hockey game and met Ken and Kristen there..... got home late. Then got up early to make it back to Chicago. It was a quick trip but it was great to see everyone (and we can't wait for Abby to be up North soon)!
