Chicago 2010

Mark and I took a long weekend vacation to Chicago. His brother-in-law, Howard, was running in a marathon on 10/10/10 so we surprised him! Lorrie worked so hard the day we got there to keep the secret. We went straight to a pizza restaurant to meet them for lunch. I think he was shocked we were there - success! I think Mark and I walked about 3 marathons over the weekend. We saw most of the city and had time to stop at the Disney Store for Halloween accessories! We also went to two shows at Second City (in between shows we watched the AU game at a sports bar). Here are some pictures we took. These are just the photos off the camera I was carrying. Mark took a bunch on his phone and with a camera that is now dead and we can't find the charger.... A special thanks to Nana and Papa for keeping the kiddos!
