Chicago and Kansas Trips

The girls and I got away for over a week to visit friends and family in Chicago and KC. Frank joined me for the Chicago portion, and we spent about 3 days with his folks. We spent some of our time at a fun little indoor amusement park, eating at Franksville and Gino's Pizza, and scaring the cats into hiding. It was great to be together in Chicago! The girls and I also visited KC. My sister and her family were also in town, so we enjoyed lots of cousin playing time. We spent one day at KU and another day at the T-Rex cafe and playing at Zonkers. Unfortunately one full day was spent with almost all of us falling victim to a nasty 24-hour flu bug. After the Macks went home, the girls and I spent some time visiting with old friends. It is always a joy to spend time at grammy and pop pop's! We hope to do another trip soon!
