The Chen-Pariso Clan

While seeing Hamilton was definitely the highlight of the weekend, Chris and I had a wonderful time with our friends, the Chen-Parisos! Whenever we visit with Chrissie and her kids, there is a lot of laughter, craziness and tons of food. Chrissie and I have been friends for almost 25 years and it is wonderful to have a friend that you can act like a 16 year-old with when you are both approaching 40. Chrissie and I exposed the boys to some of our Les Mis and Phantom singing as we drove back from the city one evening. They all looked at us like we were nuts but it's important for them to hear these things!

Chrissie and Jason took us to a delicious Chinese place in Chinatown where we stuffed ourselves with food and mango smoothies. This was followed by a visit to a Chinese bakery where I think we bought up at least half the store!

On Sunday, we visited the Field Museum of Natural History which was very cool. They boys (and Mei Mei) posed and dabbed in front of Sue the T-Rex!

A fun weekend was had by all!
