Chicago

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.
