a long drive home

Leaving Jake at school was hard for me. As we began heading home and started putting the miles between us- my mama heart was breaking just a little. But what makes it all just a little easier is knowing he is going to love it there and is so ready to start this next chapter of his life.

Our car ride home was a long one. 10 hours long, with an hour and a half just getting through the city of Chicago. Stop and go traffic on a Sunday afternoon. Yuck.

We took a dinner break at our favorite hot dog spot, Gene and Jude's in River Grove, IL.

Saw my favorite water tower. {Yes, boredom was setting in.}

And a DeLorian- a car from the movie'Back to the Future'.

We have been home for a few days now and our house is a little too quiet. 
But we will settle into this new rhythm and are already anticipating seeing Jake in several weeks and taking in a ND football game!
