Shopping Trip!

Over the weekend, I went up to Schaumburg with 5 girlfriends from our LifeGroup for a shopping trip to Woodfield Mall! We went up on Saturday morning, spent the night, and came back Sunday afternoon. We had a wonderful time together!! It was so fun to get to know each other better, and just to spend time relaxing, having fun, and being with girlfriends!
We had lunch at the Rainforest Cafe, which was a fun first for me. (The kids would LOVE it!) We each found something we were hoping to purchase, and some good deals too.
When we got to our hotel, we hung out, snacked, ordered in Giordano's, went to the hot tub, and chit-chatted until 1:00 a.m. So, we were pretty slow getting all of us around in the morning, but managed to get in some more shopping before heading home. Some of the girls went to IKEA, and we also made a stop at Trader Joe's.
Back at home, Jeremy took the kids to Krispy Kreme for breakfast, and to Chuck E. Cheese's with another LifeGroup dad & kids to play and have lunch. He got them all to church by 8:00 a.m. and got them lunch and naps before picking me up at church in the afternoon.
