Days 48 and 49: Sweet Home Chicago... or Schaumburg :)

Tomorrow, we make our way to another new country, the United Arab Emirates. These last few days at home have flown by so quickly!

Yesterday, we celebrated our amazing mom's birthday with the Chicago classic, Lou Malnatis. But not until Lisa's flight from Seattle finally landed after being diverted to Rockford, thanks to the awesome storms.

Today, we did a few drive-by visits. First, we saw our cousin Katherine, her hubbie Dan, and the peanuts, Addyson and Maverick. Our next stop was Red Mango to load up on frozen yogurt and to catch up with our friend Katie.

Outside of repacking and falling asleep like a narcoleptic at 9:00 pm each night, I spent any spare time with my boyfriend Chris and his fat cuddly cat Camel.

Hard to believe that Lisa and I already leave for Dubai tomorrow. Flight loads willing, we will be seated next to each other for the 13.5 hour flight from Washington DC to Dubai. Cross your fingers for us!
