My occasionally snarky thoughts on everything from motherhood, politics, life and current events. Cocktails are sometimes mandatory. Bottoms up!

Chi Town...

A few pictures from our impromptu visit. We had a great day Tuesday at the Museum of Science and Industry.















Taking the tour of the U-505 and hearing the story of it's capture by the U.S. Navy was amazing.

And the girls got to try their hand at piloting their own submarines...











I think though, that the girls favorite part of the museum involved these little guys...












Nothing like seeing a teeny tiny miracle in real time. And they were very cute and fuzzy too...

We were at the museum for seven hours and didn't even come close to seeing it all. I think another trip will have to be made sooner than later. It's a great place.













We really did have a wonderful time.

Oh! And though WxMAn *did* want to go to the ESPN Zone, he realized that it would be packed for Monday Night Football so he made the wise decision to take me to Volare for some sumptuous Italian fare. He's a smart guy.
