Down Town Chicago.

Today was a lot of fun!! First we drove to down town Chicago to the John Hancock Building, The 4th largest building in Chicago. lol That was really neat to be able to see a huge view of the city. We were able to eat lunch at the 95th floor (YIKES). The food was really great! I had Mahi Mahi... YUM. and a really awesome salad and Pasta! It was really funny because when you would look out at all the buildings, we counted 6 swimming pools on the roofs! I have decided that I am going to have a swimming pool on my roof!  :D

Then we were able to go to Sprinkles. It was this really cute cupcake shop, we ended up getting 2 dozen cupcakes... LOL We all got to eat one right out side the shop while everyone that was waiting in line watched. It was weird. Me and Aunt Di were the ones that had to sit with them on our laps.. So we looked like we were pigs eating these 2 boxes of cupcakes by ourselves.. lol They were delicious though!! Especially the Red Velvet. YUM! 

After cupcakes, we walked the Magnificent Mile. Which is Michigan Ave. It was awesome to see all the designer shops... That i would never in a million year just be able to shop there. Not only because on the prices.. but because chubby girl stores suit me better.. ;) 

We then walked over to the Jazz Festival.. That was cool. If you like Jazz. All i can say is that some of those piano players have QUICK fingers! haha. We ate on the grass and listened to music. It was nice. We also got to walk over to the pier, that was so neat to see all of the boats justa floating out there.. lol. It made me miss boating. :) 

Holy! I can't believe that i almost forgot!! We went into the AMERICAN GIRL STORE. Coolest thing EVER! We got to see all the dolls, the salon- where you can bring your doll in and have them do their hair and a  doctors office- where they fix your doll and give her a gown and a band to make her all better! It was so stinking cute!  Huge inside, they even had head gear that you could buy for your doll!! I want one, lol Me and Hannah played with them as soon as we got back home! I LOVED ever minute of it!! :D

Also Aunt Di got her I-pod with her I-pod accessories stolen.. we think. At the restaurant, while we were eating... oops. Coat rooms are not very secure anyways, anyone can just walk right in. 

Tonight was a BLAST!!! Loved seeing the big city, all the buildings and PEOPLE! Who would have thought that there would be so many people in one place at once!!! haha JK.

Tomorrow we are going to church, then we are having a BBQ with Uncle Rich's sisters! It should be fun!

Until next time!!!

  1. Some people would say calling Sprinkles a "cute cupcake shop" is blasphemy. It's like calling lobster "that one pretty good fish". Glad you guys had fun.
