Chicago

We are back from our trip! We had a great time but are now super tired! The drive took 9 hours each way - and ya'll know how much I love to sit in the car. Here's a pick of Keira enjoying a movie and a snack on the drive.




The best part of our trip was our visit to the pumpkin patch. Keira LOVES this place. And I can see why, it has it all. Keira got to ...

Ride a Pony (Twice, acutally!)







Feed Lots of Animals (The Giraffe was her Favorite)








Pick Out a Pumpkin






Ride in Cinderalla's Carriage








And Share a Brownie with Aunt Suzie





We also went downtown for a bit - Keira got to ride the train, she was pretty excited about that, except that on the way back, the train was full and Keira didn't have a seat - she was none too pleased about this, and screamed "Where's my seat, where's my seat, someone took my seat". I was laughing as Wade was holding her and I was 10 feet away, but Wade didn't think it was nearly as funny as I did. We let Keira run around Millenium Park. She got to see herself in the bean and run around that fountain with the faces.













She also just enjoyed some time goofing around with Uncle Ryan and Aunt Suzie.








We sure wish they lived closer so we could do this more often!

Wow, what kind of pumpkin patch is that?!?!?! We may have to go there next year. Elena loves to feed the giraffes at the zoo.

Where is that bean? I've never seen it I don't think.

It looks like you had a great time!
