Peggy Was Here!!

My aunt was just in town over the weekend. They are on a 2000 mile road trip visiting all of the Church History sites along their way. They stopped here in Chicago for a one day layover between Nauvoo, IL and Kirtland, OH. It was so fun to see them! They arrived at 3 pm, and we headed for a quick tour of downtown. We started at Soldiers Field with the hope of beating all of the traffic from the Bears game-which we did–and we ended with a trip to the Sky Deck of the Sears Tower. I’ve lived here for 5 years and have still not visited the Sky Deck. At $13 a head it will be a while before this family of 6 actually makes it to the top!

It was dark when they made it back to ‘Terra Firma’ and we headed to my husbands restaurant–well, we did make a quick loop over to Harpo Studio’s so she could have a little “Oprah” photo op. My husbands restaurant was closed by the time we made it back, so we headed to a late dinner and then home to get my kids and Uncle Mike to bed. My aunt Peggy and I stayed up until 1 in the morning just chatting. It was so fun to have her here, even it was only for 18 hours!!
