She and Him

True confession: I am not hip.  If you need further evidence, ask me about the story when I worked at the United Nations 7 years ago and blew off Billy Joel because I did not know who he was.  Seriously, Billy Joel.  But I do have hip friends.  Their names are Caitlin and Jeff.  Chris and I are pretty much in love with them.  We think we were meant to be because we followed them from Utah to New York and now Chicago.  They live about 3 blocks from us and we hang out with them a lot.  We are very similar to them, except they are hip.  Anyway, when they suggested we go to a free concert of She and Him (a band I never would have heard of without them) in Millenium Park, I decided to go with Ella even though Chris was in New York for work.  A bunch of our pals here went and it was a super fun night.  Zooey Deschanel is the epitome of hip and I love Chicago summers. I also love our friends here--they're always up for fun adventures.   I think I miss Chicago already.

Ella very interested in my necklace



Love her silly faces!

More silly faces and Ella's boyfriend Max (who is usually the smiliest little baby around).
  Ella loves Caitlin as much as we do.
