Chicago Weekend

Michael and I went to Chicago for the weekend without the children and they were not happy because they love Chicago.  Friday night we went to the RedHead Piano Bar and had so much fun.  Saturday morning we headed to the Field Museum to see Sue which is the largest most complete T-Rex dinosaur.

It was pretty cold but we still wanted to walk up and down Michigan Ave.  Michael enjoyed Marilyn Monroe!  I am sure he is not the only one who has looked up her dress.


Then we went to Vertigo Sky Lounge.  It is a roof-top bar and they have fur blankets for you when it is cold outside.


On Sunday our friends Katie and Danny picked us up at our hotel. (We stayed at the Hotel Felix)  Michael wanted to go to the Wieners Circle to get a hot dog.  They have a reality show and they are verbally abusive to the customers but on a Sunday around lunch they were not as bad.


Danny was really enjoying the cheese fries.


This is what we get for saying we wanted a close up picture.


Katie and I decided to take our own picture because the boys were not cooperating.


We also enjoyed a tour of Goose Island Brewing Co.


The taste testing was the best part of the tour.

This is a picture of the best bakery ever!!  Sweet Mandy B's  We actually had dessert before eating dinner at Pequod's Pizza which was also delicious.


Fun times in Chicago!!!

What a wonderful weekend in Chicago!   Thank you Katie and Danny for spending your whole Sunday with us.
