Sweet Home, Chicago......




































This is part 2 of my adventure to Chicago. Jack came and got me for lunch on Friday. They were all done working and he wanted to go to eat with a co-worker and brought me along. We went to this hamburger/hotdog place that we went to 4 years ago and it was SO GOOD!! Jack and I walked to Millennium Park after that and enjoyed some time there before we came back to the hotel, got dressed up and went to the Chicago Chop House. (that was one of my previous posts). We were then able to go down to Navy Pier. It was absolutely beautiful. You could turn around and see the beautiful Chicago skyline all lit up. We sat by the water watching the boats take off and looked at the city. We also rode the big Ferris wheel. Jack was getting very tired by then after living on 6 hours of sleep the entire week so we called it a night. Saturday we did some shopping on Michigan Ave (the magnificent mile where our hotel was located). We also took an hour and a half boat ride down through the city and out past Navy Pier.....A perfect day!! We quickly ran to Garretts (Garretts is a Chicago popcorn shop all over Chicago....THE BEST CARMEL CORN EVER....there is usually a line out the door and there was) to get our last share of Carmel corn and then we headed back home to get the kids. I'm truly amazed on how God provides for us and once again were able to take a very inexpensive vacation!!!
