Picking up dinner at Passero's!

A relaxing day...

Today has been relaxing playing cribbage and ping pong, running to the Post Office and grabbing Subway lunch.  More cribbage and looking at Joe's wedding slide show he made for us...  Now College Game Day to gear up for the Final Four tonight.

Bedtime is calling...

Long afternoon just chilling at the house in Naperville.  Watched my home video of the cow feeding and house tour, Gini made some delicious pasta, and now watching the Bulls vs. Magic.  It is going to be an early night.

Another day tomorrow in the suburbs before we head to Wrigleyville after church on Sunday.

Good night all!

Stop by the office...

... after a lunch at Culver's, cookie stop at Whole Foods, we stopped by the office to get a bank deposit.

David & Joe at the salt water aquarium at Bass Pro in Bolingbrook...

Enjoying the Bass Pro...

David's first snow blower sighting...

Coffee time!

After a brief stop at dad's office and a quick stop at home, we made it to Starbucks!

Chicago! Landed safely at Midway...

Good flight.  Altitude 39,000 ft with a headwind.  A few minutes behind schedule.

I got my window seat and David got his aisle seat.  The middle seat was unoccupied.  Slept most of the way and then woke up to a boy behind me telling his mother the life stories of his imaginary friends, Victor, Jackie and Pudge...

Yeah for the gate!  Off soon...

Boarded and ready!

At our gate waiting to board...

We made it through security and now on the hunt for breakfast...

On our way to AUS...

Well it's 4:20am, and we are off to AUS for our 6:00am Southwest non-stop flight to Midway.  We did get early bird check-in, so hope our seats are decent.

My dad is going to be picking us up and can't wait to see him!
