Chicago - Day 1
























































We flew up to Chicago on August 5, 2010 to attend my graduation ceremony on August 7, 2010. My parents came with us and we got to see Andy's parents and siblings while we were up there.

On August 6th, Andy and my dad went to a Cubs game so my mom and I took the kids and explored Chicago. We took the kids to the Lego store and then walked to the American Girl Store. After the kids had their surprises, my mom and I explored each of the floors at Macys. We shopped for a while and then went on a tour of Chicago. We saw Oprah's house, Sears Tower, Hancock Building, Trump Tower, the Aqua building, Millenium Park, a lot being used for the new Transformers movie, and Navy Pier. We actually met my dad and Andy at Navy Pier. All 7 of us went on the ferris wheel, which the kids really enjoyed. The kids went on the carousel and then we headed back to the hotel to meet Andy's parents. We ended up going to Rainforest Cafe. Zachary spotted it down the street and it worked out well because they were able to seat all 9 of us immediately.
