I've had a blast in Chicago this weekend! Scott and I woke up for a late breakfast Saturday morning and took the metra into the city. We got off at union station and walked to the ESPN zone taking in all the sights. Ashley and Ryan met us to watch the game (if you can call it a game, sorry U) and we decided a deep dish pizza was a must. After putting our name on a 90 minutes waiting list at Giordano's, we went up in the Hancock tower in time to see the sun set and then get some great night shots of the city. We got back to the restaurant in time to sneak into our reservation slot which was lucky for us because the pizza was amazingly good and the company even better :-)After taking the metra back to Glenview where we were staying with Scott's Uncle Dan and Aunt Robin, we crashed from another funfilled day.
On Sunday, we woke up to meet Ryan and Ashley for Church at Harvest Bible, a Chicago mega church with Pastor James MacDonald. After church, we went to Ashley and Ryan's house for a wonderful lunch, a nailbiting Bears game, and some play time with their pet hedgehog, Coco. Scott's friend Tunie lives close by Ryan, so when we left after the Bears game, we picked up Tunie and grabbed dinner in Wheaton, Il. It was another wonderful day with the perfect fall football weather and spending more time getting to know Scott's friends from college.
Today Scott started his rotation, so I have been catching up with emails, updating my blog, obviously ;-) an spending time with his Aunt Robin. I leave tomorrow afternoon to head back to Richmond and will fly back out at the end of the month to keep Scott entertained on the drive back, a job I take very serious ;-)
