At Grandma and Grandpa's

Ben went to Chicago with his mom for the celebration of his Grandpa Bill's retirement. It was very exciting, especially staying in a serve-yourself B&B with his cousins Sebastian and Julien (and Aunt Adrienne and Uncle Richard) and his aunt Tanya. The first night we all went to Grandpa Bill and Grandma Jan's for dinner (from Cedars; Ben particularly liked the soup) and the kids explored the house thoroughly. Ben and Sebastian both liked Grandpa's red chair and took turns on it, and they loved the brass coffee table (Adrienne has a film up on her blog; I'll see if I can connect to it here too).
