tuesday in chicago

tuesday was a dream come true - going to chicago AND a cubbies game!! we had the privilege to say with matt's great aunt kay just north of chicago - she was SO sweet and very hospitable. we had a warm place to stay and a yummy breakfast the next morning :o)

first was lunch at portillos (how could you not visit while in chicago)


and then we took the "skokie swift" (public transportation) to the cubbies game



here she is in all her glory...



they HAD to get new hats in chicago :o)


and to top it off, we had some pretty sweet seats






the cubbies lost, but it was the best part of our trip!!

here some pictures of the city the next morning - we didn't have time to sight see the area, but jasen and amanda agreed to go back with us and be our tour guides



grandma & grandpaw - we took this one for you
