Dave and Amy's old house in early 2000's. This is where they were living when Justice was born in 2004 and when David got his Master's Degree from UIC. Oh the memories!

Oh Pretty City!

Breakfast at Clarke's...

Phone died last night...

... so sorry there weren't more photos. We went to Trader Todd's for a bit after the game and then had dinner at Leona's Italian. It was great! Had baked mac and cheese. Doesn't beat the mac and cheese pizza we had last year, but it will still do!

1-0 Top of 5th

Cubbies lead with a Marlon Byrd RBI. Don't let the blue skies and sunshine fool you. This shade and wind is a frigid one.
