The Zoo with the Burkholders!

 The Burkholder Family drove into Chicago for a weekend and we were so happy to spend time with them and check out the Lincoln Park Zoo!  It was a little chilly, but we saw some great animals and had fun on the carousel.  Afterwards, we all came back to our house and had dinner, followed by "the best sleepover ever."  The few times thus far that we've had other children sleep over at our home, everyone usually bunks in Cassidy's room.  But this time, the boys got to have their own spot in Gavin's room, and Gavin was bursting with pride and excitement.  I'll never forget closing his bedroom door after saying goodnight, and he was literally grinning from ear to ear with his head on the pillow as he looked at his big cousin Michael there with him.  We are thankful for our cousins!
