Chicago

Christian had to present at the Podiatry school in Chicago, so we decided to tag a long with him. After he presented on Friday we headed to Legoland Discovery Center. A really cool place filled with LOTS of Legos, rides, games and movies.

City of Chicago made out of legos.

After a fun day at Lego Discovery Center we headed to our new hotel downtown. (we stayed in North Chicago the first night) We headed to the famous Giordanos pizza place for some stuffed crust pizza.

SHH don't tell anyone I didn't like it.

Saturday was a long fun day spent at the Shedd Aquarium. There was so much to see and do we were there ALL Day!





They do actually love eachother

That's a long way down... 110 stories down.


Then on the way home we were in traffic for 2 hours!

This is what I think about Chicago traffic....YUCK!

Oh my goodness, how fun! I am AMAZED by what they can do with some legos! And I also think I would have thrown up standing on a glass floor that high! ; ) I think we definitely need to make it to Chicago while we are in Michigan since it is so close!

Fun stuff! Ryan want's to stop in Chicago when we come back for Brooklyn's baptism. Your kids are so lucky you are not just making these memories but recording them too.
