Chicago

We really wanted Lara to see Chicago.
We knew spring break would be our last chance to take her.

Hancock building.It cost $95 to take our family up.
That is ridiculous!
But we did it. This is Jobie's favorite place to be.
He is going to miss her.
A lot. Favorite place to eat in Chicago.
Giordano's.
Yum!And, of course, we did lots of shopping.
At Niketown.And Apple.And LOTS of other places.

If Jobie wasn't on Lara's shoulders, he was with me.
Always way behind the others. Brookie's favorite sign in the city.
We have many pictures of it. No trip to Chicago would be complete without a stop at Wrigley.
Then we headed to Ryan's cousin's.
An hour west of the city.
For a couple days of fun and family.

And guess where I went for the first time?
IKEA!!
And guess how many pictures I took?
Zero!

I was too excited I guess.
But I loved it.
As if I ever doubted I would.

What fun to go to Chicago?! oh, the memories. Austin and I lived in the apartment right above LaSalle Flowers while we finished school right after we got married, so I agree with Brookie, it is a cool sign! -Krista

1. I've never been to Chicago.

2. Your boots are really cute.

3. Your coat is even cuter.

We went to the club at the top and pretended to be customers and it didn't cost us anything, I think.

I've see the LaSalle sign a time or two - thought it was where A & K lived.

Glad you could take your family.
