We love Chicago!

We do not love Ikea! Well, we love their kitchen cabinets but there is no love here for the store itself! That place is a madhouse! However we had kitchen cabinets that we needed to return as well as cabinets to purchase to finish the spot right inside the back door. So, we loaded the girls up and drove to Chicago Friday night. We arrived at Ikea Saturday morning 30 minutes prior to opening. After what felt like a never ending trip to this crazed store, we headed to the city and had a great time.

Having snacks in the fancy Palmer House executive lounge on Saturday afternoon! Free hotel rooms with mucho amenties are a perk of Kevin's crazy travel schedule.

The L! A great $6 ride!

A lady fell off of her bike as we sat enjoying the beautiful lakeside view. Thankfully the woman wasn't seriously hurt so it was a great teachable moment on why the girls must ALWAYS wear their bike helmets!
