Sarah from the City becomes Sarah from the Suburbs!!

My college roomie, Sarah Green, and her family just moved to Wheaton, IL from Chicago. When Julia was little, and still now, we nick-named Sarah "Sarah from the city." Julia and I even took the train into Chicago to visit her when Julia was just 20 months old and we rode the "L" and even a city bus. What a fun day that was. Now whenever we visit my parents in IL we try to make a stop in the city to see Sarah and her daughter, Charlotte. These visits just got easier because... city-dwellers Matt and Sarah Green sold their Chicago townhouse and moved to Wheaton, IL only 30-40 minutes from my parents!!

We had lunch at 2 Toots, a diner style restaurant where they serve your
food off a little toy train track.

Charlotte and Matthias looked so cute sitting up at the counter in their booster seats!

Enjoying our lunch at the counter at 2 Toots!

We tried several times to get a group shot but it never really worked out, but we did get a picture of Julia reading to Charlotte. She and Charlotte have always been good buddies when we get together. Julia is so cute with her.



This visit Chris gave Sarah and me the best gift: We got about an hour and a half of uninterrupted conversation. He took our girls swimming at their complex pool and the little ones napped. Sarah and I can't remember the last time we had the chance to talk without
little friends interrupting us!
Over all we had a great time visiting with the Green ladies and we are very excited that we will get to see more of them the next visit to IL. Maybe next time we will even get to have an overnight at their new house.
