Illinois vs. Michigan

Jarod and I made the trip down to Illinois for the Michigan game. At first we said that we were like Switzerland and didn't choose sides but soon we found ourselves cheering for Michigan. Who can cheer against the team that Tom Brady played for? It was a great game and Michigan walked away with a win. We are on our way to Ann Arbor next week for Michigan vs. Minnesota at the Big House. Can't wait!

Mom and Dad Visit

My mom and dad came out for a visit last week for my dad's and Jarod's birthdays. Would you believe that we didn't take one picture! What is this world coming to? We had the best time though. We went and saw the musical Wicked. I would highly suggest seeing it if you get the chance. It is great! We have seen it 4 times and I have loved it every time.
We went to the Chicago History Museum. Wrigley even had a display in the museum. It was really interesting. I learned that Lincoln Park, the neighborhood that I live in, was vital in the start of the Hippie movement. Who knew?
We did plenty of shopping and I am sure bored my parents to death with all the narrated walks and drives through Chicago. What can we say we love this city!
