We took a little trip to Chicago for a weekend get away, to see my sister and her family before they moved to San Francisco. Elliot hadn't seen where they lived, so we spent a few days seeing their life. Chicago is such a fun city, and we were able to do so much! We went to the Sear's tower, and rode bikes along the lake one day. I felt like I was at the beach. It was heavenly!!! It was such a beautiful, fun, busy weekend!
Then, to make a long story short... we missed our flight home. We both had to be home for work the next day, and we weren't going to be able to get on a plane for 2 days, due to so many canceled flights. So at 12:30a.m. we rented a car and began driving from the top of the country... to the bottom! We drove all night, through St. Louis, and on home. It was a long drive, but actually turned out to be so much fun! St. Louis... The gateway to the west.
