thaw out






Today the high was near 60 degrees! Almost all of the snow has melted and even though everything outside is damp, it was WONDERFUL to get outside and get some much needed fresh air. Grandpa came early this morning for a weekend visit. Mia was so happy to see him and went right to him. We headed downtown for the day. We spent at few hours at the Art Institute. Mia had fun playing in the children's room and made a few friends. One little boy, who was a smart 6 year old, even read her a story...but he wasn't happy each time Mia knocked down his tower of blocks! We then went for lunch at Pisano's on Madison then walked around the Frozen Fun exhibit in Millenium park but because of the warm weather, most of the ice sculptures and mazes were melting! We took a nice walk with the beagles once we got home then played for a bit before Mia went to bed. It was a great day and we so enjoyed our visit with Grandpa on this great spring like day!
