Ok, I am starting to get emails, phone calls and harassing remarks. I need to update the blog! Sorry!

Chicago was fabulous! We split our time between mom and dad’s house in the ‘burbs and their condo downtown on Michigan Avenue. It was nice to be home and see everyone!

Day one was our annual Hill Picnic. I can’t remember how many of them we’ve had….but I know we at least go back 17 years. This years theme was “Pirates of the Hill-ibbean!” We had a great time and there were lots of pirates in the crowd! I think all but 5 of us were there. Here are a few photos:
