Spring Break!

As you know, Rick and I were able to go to Chicago for part of my Spring Break and we had a great time! We were able to stay with Dave, Erin & Royal which was really fun! We were also able to take a trip over to Indiana to spend some time with Rick's Grandparents and the Enochs side of the family that lives over there.
But first, a pic of Rick and the kitties in the motorhome before we left.

We took a red-eye flight to Chicago so we got in at 4am on Friday morning. By the time we got our luggage and made our way into Chicago on the L, we didn't get to Dave and Erin's until 6 or so. We all chatted for awhile until breakfast time, and we made our way to a Jewish deli and had a wonderful breakfast.
As you can see I had Challuh bread French toast with strawberries, bananas and coconut flakes. It was amazing!

And I finished every last bite.

After breakfast we braved the chilly 28 degree weather and walked over to Millenium Park. I had been there before, but Rick hadn't, so we just got a few quick pictures of The Bean.

Rick and I, and the reflection of our backs

Another one of us in front of The Bean. It really is awesome to see the city reflected in it, especially on a sunny day. (PS If you want to see my Chicago pics from my last trip, in November 2007 click here)

Cute Royal hanging out in their apartment after we all took a nap

Royal and Rick getting better acquainted

My friend Dave (who I went to high school with) goes to Northwestern Law School (hence why they are in Chicago). Northwestern is a top 10 ranked law school, either 7 or 8, I can't remember. It's so awesome that Dave is getting such an amazing opportunity to study law at such a great place! We were able to walk around the campus a bit and it has really old, cool buildings. I loved this old classroom. It's exactly what you'd think a classroom for a person studying law in the 1800's would look like! Sorry it's a bit dark...

After visiting the school, Dave took Royal so Erin, Rick and I could go shopping on The Magnificent Mile. We had a fun time, and spent lots of time in H&M :)
We were all pretty exhausted so we spent the rest of the evening in, and got deep dish Chicago pizza! Yum! More later...
