Weekend in Chicago

Nicole, Brady, Preston and I all packed into my car at 6:00AM on Friday morning for the nine hour trip to Chicago to visit Sally and Rob for the weekend. We were all wondering how 22-month old grandson, Brady, would act on such a long trip. Wow! Were we pleasantly surprised. He was fabulous the entire trip – never a squawk out of him and very little sleeping either way. What a miracle. Nicole kept him entertained with playthings and puzzles to do in his car seat and he loved it. We went to the Navy Pier, the Zoo the Aquarium, and even to an orchestra concert in Millenium Park one night (Brady loves orchestras, especially the violins and cellos). We had a wonderful time with my son Rob, wife Sally, and their dog Stella. Packed up early Monday morning and headed back home. Long drive, but well worth it!

The pictures are from the 4th of July and the Aquarium. Enjoy!
