ROOT, ROOT, ROOT FOR THE CUBBIES!

Me, Tyson, and Justin just got back from a wonderful trip to Chicago!!! We made the pilgrimage to the United Center to see the Michael Jordan Statue, ate deep dish pizza, and took an architecture cruise at night on the chicago river.
Cloud Gate at Millenium Park


Giordano's deep dish pizza



At Buckingham Fountain


Look at Tyson, he doesn't look too happy, does he?


The highlight of our trip was meeting my Uncle John, Aunt Chris, and Cousin Rachel at Wrigley Field for the Cubs game. We had a great time with them! It was so great of them to make the drive from Wisconsin. We love you guys! The Cubs won the Diamondbacks 5-0!!!
I loved listening to the organ play. Wrigley is such a neat old place. Too bad our other game got rained out!
Look at the statue of Harry Caray behind Justin and Tyson. "If the moon were made of ribs, would you eat it then?" We made sure we ate at Harry Caray's restaurant while we were there. And no, we didn't have ribs or hot dogs at the restaurant.










"If you were a hot dog, would you eat yourself?"






We really want to go back to Chicago, like, um, right now! We didn't like the traffic though. Neither did our trusty chauffer, Justin. The guys were great and came to two museums with me. Talk about Tyson and Katie heaven, all in one great city!
