Vacation Chicago Style

This will most likely be my last post for a while as we are moving next week and school starts shortly thereafter. I just wanted to post some pics from my awesome trip to visit my sister and her husband in Chicago. Rance gave me the plane ticket for my birthday. Hooray!

Brandon and April showed me all around Chicago. There is lots of neat architecture and art there.

We went to the Chicago Art Institute

and on a river tour of the city's varied architecture. It was cool!

We also went to a live taping of a radio show called Wait, Wait, Don't Tell Me. It was sooo funny. All that laughing made April hungry!

Seriously though, April and Brandon kept me well fed the whole time. I got to try real Chicago Pizza (yum!), April's crepes, and frozen custard (double yum!). It was all I could do not to drink the toilet water on the train though. Good thing they put up a sign...

Thanks for a memorable trip April, Brandon and Mable! You guys are party animals. Also thanks to Rance, Val, and Grandma Patterson for keeping an eye on my chilins.

Glad you had a fun time in Chicago!! We had a fun time with the chillin's...except for the car breaking down in Vegas part...but even then the chillin's were really good! Bryce was really happy to have them here for his baptism.
