A Day in the City

Yesterday Sarah and I went to Chicago. What an AWESOME!!! Day we had. The main reason for going was because Sarah had an interview at this college that she really wanted to get into and they tell you right then if you are accepted or not AND SHE WAS!!! Go Sarah! Its your college! Get your smarts on!! Ok ill stop.

anyway!!.....We decided to make a day of it since she has never been downtown and I never really been there other than to drive through....So we made plans to do things. What a day we had. It was just perfect. I had looked online to see what was going on and thought that it might be nice to go to Navy Pier since I have never gone and there is lots to do there. Also...The IMAX theater is there and I've always wanted to check that out.
(I lost a chunk of this entry somehow so forgive the choppiness here)
The Polar Express, a show called Aliens of the Deep which looks really good and were going to see that next time we go and the one we went to see called PULSE: A Stomp Odyssey which is just like Stomp only this is taken around the world. Its was really nice and the music was great.

now I'm not sure what happened here but I had written a whole bunch more and this one section is lost so now I'm going to try to recreate it. Ugh


I have pics here if you want to see. There will be more posted when I get the camera developed. The digital pics are coming out really dark and they are not the best ones...But for now they will do.

the train ride home was long but entertaining. Filled with kids and Navy folk. The navy base is one of the stops. 90% of the train empties out at that stop. Scattered about were a few old timers that kept me wondering what they would be doing out so late on a Saturday night, but I guess everyone has there fun at some point in time. We got home around 11pm and just crashed. It was a fun filled day of sight seeing, walking, and enjoying the great weather we had.

today is laundry day and cleaning. sarahs at work right now so that gives me a chance to get some stuff done. I'm sure ill talk more about our day when things come to light but right now I just have to much to do to be sitting here.

if you really need a good laugh, I mean laugh out loud till you wease kinda laugh...You have got to read this and watch the video at the end....WARNING....Do not drink while viewing the video!!! Trust me!

have a great weekend!!
