I realize that I am far behind on updating the blog, but I thought I would still show you some of our Spring Break Vacation to Chicago, IL...to visit Papa and Ducky.
Ducky took us to a very kid friendly restaurant that the kids would enjoy...Choo Choo Johnny's...it was all about trains! When your food was ready to come to your table it came to you on a train. The conductor (waitress) would blow a horn to let you know that you food was on its way! The kids just got a kick out of that!!
Mason and Ava watching their food come by on the train!
One of the first things we did when we got to Chicago was go to a museum in Joilet on Route 66. It was a really neat museum and the kids even enjoyed it. Their were lots of things they could touch and get in! After the museum we headed on the Route to a old restaurant that has been there for ages. It looked just like it did back when everyone used Route 66...it was called the Polka Dot Cafe.
The kids pretending to drive up to a drive movie...notice who is driving!!!
These were some of the few statues at the cafe...The Blues Brothers!We took the kids one day to Legoland. It was kind of like a mini theme park indoors! We saw 2 4D movies, saw all kinds of things made out of legos, rode a ride, and learned how to make a spinning top out of legos.

Mason racing his car that he made out of Legos!

Luckily we picked the best day to go downtown. The weather was beautiful! WE went to the Navy Pier, rode on a roof top tour bus, ate at Rainforrest Cafe, and rode in a taxi. The kids really had a blast and so did the adults!!
Mason working in the Hershey Factory...getting a bucketful of chocolate!!

The kids touching the famous Bean...it is a big mirrored bean!
At the end of the Navy Pier...the Michigan in the background!
