Because I Love My Children...

I caved to their repeated pleas to brave the heat and the crowd for a 'once in a lifetime' opportunity to see the Stanley Cup the day before my highly anticipated, ridiculously over planned, first annual Ky&Co Zoo & Brew. 

The day was long, the weather was hot, the crowds were massive (I heard 2 million people), but the kids loved it. I hate to say they were right...it was an awesome, once in a lifetime experience. 

The E Kids, waiting for the parade to start.
It was only an HOUR behind schedule.


Thanks to Aunt Patti for snapping this cute pic of me & Lucy.


We really lucked out being next to that van...
we all scored free t-shirts and water from the Coke guys in it.


Aunt Lisa and Gretchen were brave enough to
accompany us on this (rather insane) journey to the city.


Ugh, the crowds...Rex & I 'chased the cup' in this crowd
 trying to get him a glimpse of it after he missed in it the parade.
Needless to say, we gave up and watched it on the big screen.


Making a Chicago landmark that much more historical.  


Woo Hoo! My fave Hawk...Big Buff!


There it is with Kane & Toews!
