A Wicked Weekend Getaway



Heather and I were able to take advantage of Shir... That is we were able to take an overnight trip to Chicago while Aunt Shirley graciously watched our beautiful and sometimes very noisy children. We had a quiet and romantic trip to Chicago.

As a side note, we discovered that much stress was averted thanks to our new toy, the Nuvi 200 GPS direction giving thingy. We found that not being overly afraid of getting lost made the trip much nicer. Printed directions are great until you miss a turn. This thing just reroutes you on the fly!

We stayed at a nice hotel and went to see the Musical Wicked. The music was very good and we enjoyed the twist that the show put on the tale of Oz that we all know from the Wizard of Oz. Thanks Aunt Shirley. The kids loved being with you and Grammi, and we loved having you visit.



Troy and Amy who lived in Chicago for several years while they were going to law school and developed a taste for Chicago style pizza. They recommended that we stop in at Giordano's while we were in town. We did, and found it to be really a pizza pie. The following video and pictures are really mostly for them. Sorry you couldn't be with us!
