Cincy

We had a great weekend. We left for Cincy around 2pm on Friday. My sister, Jill, kept our girls for the weekend. We first stopped at the Gap Outlet - one of my FAVE destinations. Bought some fun stuff. . . stopped briefly at our hotel - our room was awesome - then to the ballpark. Hail and severe storms were predicted - by a miracle - there were about 5 minutes of rain - and that was it! Highlights of the ballgame included: Johnny Bench throwing the first pitch. A bald eagle flying from center field to the pitcher's mound during the national anthem, and a long fireworks display after the game. (AND a hot dog and nachos!) :) Our friends Wes and Heather went with us for this Cincy adventure. After fireworks, we went back to the hotel - watched a little tv then went to bed. Got up, went to Ikea. Then ate at Pizzeria Uno, got Graeter's Ice Cream - then headed home. We attended a wedding in Plainfield Saturday night, church on Sunday - then had lunch at Maggiano's with Jill, George and our girls.
