Blue skies, sunshine and plenty of beer and brats to go around. These are the days that make you forgive and forget the horrible Chicago winters. We've been trying to take advantage of the nice weather while it lasts and have been spending as much time as possible up at the lake and outside. Mac is learning to swim and really taking to the water. Paige has taken to lounging in the shade and watching all the action. And Dan and I have really taken to the idea of trying to win the lotto so we can retire and spend more time with our kids!
