Chicago
I flew out yesterday for Chicago. I sat by a really nice lady from VA and we talked the entire time. The flight went by so quickly by having her there. I felt like I was talking to a friend! I was so proud of myself because after I landed I found the metro train all by myself. In fact, this was the easiest metro I have ever taken. I was able to find the hotel all by myself. It only cost $2.25 to get to down town Chicago....much cheaper than a $50 taxi! (just another way to save money). I found Jack, got to my room and then he had to return to work. I did what any mom without kids would do......go shopping! I loved going down Michigan Ave....American Girl....all the other stores. I then walked to Navy Pier and looked around, came back to relax and then headed out to Millineum Park. Jack and his two co-workers ordered room service to their conference room, so I had a nice dinner of salad, cocktail shrimp, rolls, ribs, and fries!! Poor Jack has worked the past two nights until 2 am, so pray for him. All I can say is that God has provided the money for my airline ticket. (we used our credit card points to pay for one way and I paid for the other.....another way to save money). Jack is still working now and is exhausted....but tonight we are celebrating our anniversary (23rd) by going to the Chicago Chop House!! We'll spend time tonight together and most of the day tomorrow before heading home. Having a great time, even though most of it has been alone. Will show pictures when I get home.

Storms.....
To this day I hate thunderstorms!! When I was a little girl I used to hide under the covers thinking that would protect me from the storms. Now I have Jack.....poor thing. The poor guy was trying to sleep last night only to have me grabbing on to him. Jenna ended up in our room first. She seems to get the fear of storms from me. I thought everything was over only for it to get much worse. Jacob was wide awake in his room and I could tell he wanted some re-assurance, and then poor Josh was left to himself. So for about 30 minutes we had our room at full capacity with 5!! Did I mention poor Jack? I don't know how grabbing on to him will help me, but it does. We haven't had a storm that bad in quite awhile. I know it lasted at least an hour and a half as I was up for over 2 hours!! Some day this "old woman" will grow out of her fear of storms.
We are heading out of town this weekend. We'll be leaving tomorrow and coming back Saturday night. Don't forget tax free weekend. I know you don't save much on glue sticks, but when you have to buy three pair of shoes, underwear, belts, and a jumper than it really saves you money! We'll post pictures of our family adventure and shopping adventures tomorrow!!!
