Music was in the air in Chicago last week. We were lucky enough to be in town for the Blue's Festival and it was amazing. Some played music, some danced to it, some listened and some just tapped their toes.

I did most of the above! What a great event.

P.S.-Sweet PJ has asked me to remind everyone that she has a great giveaway over at her blog today! Run over!
