Part 2: Oh Men!

During our trip to Chicago, with both of our Dads and Si, we went to a Cubs game at Wrigley Field! Being at Wrigley Field for things like the 7th inning stretch and the singing of the Cubs song ("Go Cubs Go! Go Cubs Go! Hey Chicago whadda say, the Cubs are going to win today!") at the end of the game was awesome! Of course it was fun to watch the Cubs beat the Arizona Diamond Backs!



Me and my Dad at the game!



Our Chicago style hotdogs at the ballpark. So good!



Luke, Steve and Si in front of the ivy!



We finished our day in Chicago with a slice of Chicago style pizza! Elder Travis Ferrel introduced us to the best place to find true Chicago style pizza. The pizza is as deep as a lasagna and oh... so cheesy! Awesome!


Chicago is such a fun city!

Part I: Oh Men!

Last weekend Luke and I were lucky enough to have the men in our family over for a visit (minus the family missionary, Travis). It was pretty much a boys weekend, but I tagged along. Luke had class on Friday so we took the Dads; Steve and Keith, up to the University of Illinois to show them around.





We even got to witness a demonstration.

On Saturday we headed up to Chicago!

Our first stop in Chicago was the Sears Tower. From the 103rd floor you can see all of Chicago.

After playing on the Skydeck for a while we all headed over to "the bean." Located in Millennium Park the Cloud Gate has quickly become one of Chicago's most recognizable attractions.


Our reflection in the bean.
We had a wonderful time with the men in our family! We can't wait for next time when Travis can join us!
