We saw Coach Crean speak to the students and community:
Our friends Marty and Lindsey and their adorable baby Reed visited:
During their visit we went out to eat at Upland Brewery and we went for a walk on the B-Line Trail and checked out some of the local BRAINS.
And I got a baby fix with Mr. Reed:
We also went to a wedding in Chicago for my cousin, Emily and visited some of the sites:

Over the weekend, I hosted a fabulous group of Covered in Threads quilt weekend:
