The beautiful weather only seemed to get better as the weekend continued. :) We enjoyed the morning before heading over to my family's house to hang out. I let the pups out and played fetch while Mike and Mitch played an intense game of basketball. Everybody was in such high spirits because of the sunny weather!
As it got later, we all loaded up into the car and headed to Lisle. Mike and I had organized to do an escape room today with Mitch, Jax, and my parents. Our room was called "The Gallery" and was filled with replicas of famous paintings. They explained the rules and set our time for an hour and we began! It was so intense and sometimes a bit tricky, but mainly it was just lots of fun. Unfortuntly, we didn't make it out in the hour. :( We pushed out of the room literally three minutes past. So, really close and a great effort by our group! Everyone had a really nice time and was thankful that we'd organized the family night.
We hung out at the house awhile longer before heading out. On a whim we heard about this fireworks display that was set to happen in Romeoville, so we decided to go check it out. We arrived at the Mistwood Golf Club and found ourselves a nice spot to wait. The fireworks show ended being so much better than I'd imagined it would be! For a small little fest with not the largest crowd, I expected a wimpy display. But it was outstanding! The finale completely wow'd us. It was definitely a good idea to attend!
Today was fantastic. Lots of family time, lots of time outside, and lots of fun. I'm so thankful for the opportunities to do fun activities and spend time with my loved ones. :)
