Well here I am back home and thought that I should post my activities.
I went to Chicago to go to an ObesityHelp Event. It was great. I met a lot of people that had the gastric bypass or the lapband. Believe it or not, I was the one that had lost the most weight of everybody there. I couldn't believe it. I didn't win anything, but got nicknamed TEXAS while there. I was the only one from Texas. I did get to meet Dr. Garth Davis from Big Medicine and had my picture taken with him. Also the therapist that they have, Mary Jo Rapinni, was there and her session was really interesting.
After the event, Jen and Dan picked me up and we went to my mother-in-laws for a little party and to pick up George. Then we went back to my brother Kens house for the rest of the visit. I really enjoyed spending time with Jen and Dan. Jen and I went shopping for Scott and Amber's baby that is due in October. We bought so much stuff I had to buy another suitcase to get it home. I have saved some of the clothes for when they have a baby shower. I gave them some of the clothes. We got a lot of Chicago Cubs outfits and a few Bears things. They really liked all that I brought.
Got to spend time with my new little niece, Maggie. She is adorable. Her sister and brother just adore her. Her cousins Lily and Jack can't seem to get enough of her either when they were around. Jack not so much cause he is only 1 1/2 years old, but his big sis Lily is like all girls wanting to give kisses to the baby.
All in all I had a great time, even tho the weather wasn't the best at times. It was cool and rainy for half the time. We did get a bike ride in one afternoon and about a half hour after getting back it started to rain. Hope you like the few pics I'm posting.
These two pics are of my nieces and nephews. The ones at the picnic table are Left to right, Lily, Kit and little Jack, and the other picture because you couldn't see Fionn at the picnic table is Fionn on the left and little Jack on the right
