Chicago - My kinda town!

We recently were able to attend my cousin/Godchild Kimmee's wedding in Chicago! The ceremony was beautiful & of course having a family reunion is alway a bonus! My poor legs/feet were so swollen that I had to wear my flip-flops to the wedding! At least they were black :D Below is our visit to Grams' house (my maternal grandmother). She enjoyed seeing the kids & the kids loved the Jockey outside - which has been around longer then I have! K was telling us that he was her Prince & giving him kisses (like her mom used to)....

A visit to the Brookfield Zoo was also on the agenda - Lil man posed on the Lion at the entrance, just like I did at his age! We loved the Dinosaur exhibit - at least he did until they moved & roared! & I still can't believe I mounted that tiger on the merry-go-round!

Navy Pier was our last day - Thomas the Train ride got FIVE visits from Lil man! The Children's Museum was also a big hit with the kids - making pizzas, fishing, playing in treehouses, changing tires - whew! Wears me out all over again! A few micellaneous - Lil man lovin' on the baby belly & his time on the putt-putt course! When golfing, he'd knock the heck out of it & then pick up the ball & place it next to the cup to put it in - then, he'd yell - 'I DID IT!'

A great visit in all & thanks to our benefactors, mom & Payne :D
