9 Years

 Last week we celebrated our 9 year anniversary with a trip to Chicago. Here are a few things that prove that we've been married 9 years and have 3 young children...

  
Kyle with Michael Jordan's statue
 A two day trip to Chicago was so relaxing!! No children! No meals to cook! Perhaps more relaxing than our 2 week honeymoon in Hawaii...

Me and Scottie Pippen's statue
 We bought each other the same card for our anniversary. Weird. They say you start to look alike the longer you are married but did they ever mention buying the exact same card for each other? It wasn't even an actual anniversary card!!
The big floating bull
 The Bulls game was awesome. I was homesick for my little Cameron as there was a baby in the row ahead of us. Yep, we'd been gone for approximately 8 hours.
Tulips in Chicago!
 We took a picture together...just the two of us...this is rare...
We have a minivan. This is what the back looked like on the way home. We were like kids that never get out. We had purchases from Menards, IKEA, Walmart, The Loft, Eddie Bauer...you get the picture....we don't get out much.

And the biggest proof that we've been married for 9 years and have 3 small children? My parents (the babysitters) have never been so happy to have us back home:)

Congrats on making it to the big nine! I had to laugh at the back of your minivan, we went away on Valentines and did the same thing, went shopping without children. It's such a luxery to try something on without listening to your kids screaming outside the door!
