To celebrate Cory's parents, Ann & Ron's anniversary, we went to Chicago for the weekend. They are both loyal cubs fans so on Friday they invited some of their closest friends and family to watch the Cubs vs. Cardinals game in a suite. Despite it being rainy and cold we had a great time. The suite certainly made the inclement weather much more tolerable. I think most of the Woods family would say the Cubs win was the highlight of the day. My personal highlights were the heat lamp and dessert cart.
During the game, Ron & Cory were in the restroom at the same time as Tom Ricketts. If you're like me and have no clue who he is, he is the CEO of the Cubs. Ron & Cory came back to the suite and told the group they saw him and Katie took off on a mission to find him. Shortly after we had a visit from Tom Ricketts.
On Saturday we had a nice dinner at the Melting Pot. Brady did great at the long dinner thanks to an iPad loaded with a few new games. Ellie did great as well until she had a huge blow-out towards the end of dinner. I think I jinxed us because I said on the way to dinner that Ellie was due and I bet they don't have a changing table. Sure enough prediction came true. A little creativity and fast thinking averted the crisis.
Happy 35th Anniversary Ann & Ron! Here's to 35 more!
