Chicago - with family

My sister and her family came down from Wisconsin to entertain me the last few days of my trip. We went to Navy Pier to ride the Ferris wheel, play in the silly mirrors and enjoy a high speed boat ride on Lake Michigan. We also played a round of miniature golf. Watch this video of Taylor playing golf. If you listen carefully, you’ll hear her say she’s going to win. Tate’s response: “how are you going to win if you can’t even hit the ball?”



Kim’s kids love to swim so of course we went swimming – twice. Following tradition, Kim and Wes sat in the hot tub while I swam around in the big pool with the three kids.

On my last day there, we went to Arlington Park to watch the horse races. The venue was beautiful. The weather was perfect. The races were exciting. The kids were happy (until Taylor spilt Tate’s popcorn).

It was a wonderful trip. I enjoyed Chicago and would happily return another time.

I love how Sissy thinks she going to be the champion - even in Golf - can you tell she's a product of two older brothers!

Dangit, Karry! We moved from Buffalo to Illinois (just outside of Chicago) so now I AM mad I didn't get to meet up with you! Glad I read to the end of the Chicago posts where you say you'd happily return another time... So when's it gonna be??!
