Downtown Chicago

Geoff took last Friday off so we could have a family adventure in Downtown Chicago.  We originally were hoping to explore one of the many museums, but Hylie's nap schedule made it a little difficult to get downtown in time to truly get our money's worth, so we opted to check out some of the amazing architecture instead.

It was a COLD day, but we all bundled up and walked fast in between buildings and had a wonderful time.

Just as we were headed home, Geoff noticed the Sears Tower was officially in the clouds!

    We've never even thought to check out the architecture of the buildings downtown. Pretty cool stuff! Can't wait to hang out soon!
