final vacation recap plus our bonus vacation activity!

because you can never have too many pictures, i thought one more post would complete the vacation review and highlight a few other memorable moments for everyone. be sure to scroll all the way down to see what i got to do for the first time before we left chicago!i failed to mention the wonderful miracle known as a golf cart that we happen to receive the day the guys were gone. the owner of the house kindly offered us his golf cart when he longer needed it, and we were quite thankful for a mode of transportation faster than walking. we went to the beach, pool, and playground on the golf cart, and that was just the first day we had it!ben, elijah, sam, lee, and i took a short journey to south bend one day to visit the campus of notre dame. south bend is also home to the college football hall of fame, which we only saw from the outside, as well as an amazing chocolate shop too amazing for pictures.for the bonus part of the trip, mr joe, lee, and i went to wrigley field! anyone who knows lee for five minutes becomes quickly aware of his devotion to the cubs so you know this was exciting for him especially. i thoroughly enjoyed myself, bought my first cubs shirt, and got a killer sunburn on my kneecaps. lee was saddened by the loss and overall performance of the cubs, but the fans, as well as a certain player's serious mistake (cough, cough milton bradley), definitely made it a worthwhile experience!
