On January 30, Kristen & Derek, Carrie & Evan, Tonya & Dakota, Scott and I loaded into the van (with a wheelchair in the back for Dakota - he was recovering from his pcl repair) and headed off to the Pabst Mansion. What a beautiful place decorated for the Christmas season! The woodwork, grand staircase, huge pocket doors, original furninshings, and knowlegable tourguides made the visit well worth our time. Then off to Mayfair Mall for Maggiano's Italian Restaurant.
The ladies (minus their mother:)
The men

Just a bit of trivia - we ate upstairs so Dakota put his arm around Derek's neck and hopped on one leg up the staircase (ouch) - what a trooper!
This picture was taken when we arrived home. The soon to be birthday girl is missing from this "sisters" photo.
In April we will update:)
Angie and Dylan, you were missed!
