Chicago Pics
We went on two vacations this fall. The first was to Chicago on the week after Labor Day. Richard did some work in Schaumburg, IL and the kids and I went with him. We were able to visit with Marianne and her family while we were there. Then we spent the weekend with Angie in Chicago and did some touristy things.
Here is the list of what I wanted to do while on this trip...
1. visit Marianne
2. visit Angie
3. Lincoln Park Zoo
4. Natural History Museum to see dinosaur bones
5. Navy Pier
6. Boat Tour of Chicago
7. eat a Chicago Hot Dog
8. eat some real Deep Dish Chicago Style Pizza
I knew I had high hopes and would be traveling with a preschooler and a toddler, but we were able to do all of that and more. It really was a great vacation! Here are some pictures...
