Lost and Found

Back in August Kim came to Chicago. We hung out one night and got a few pics, but for some reason I thought I lost them all. Not to worry I have found them.

This is a Pirate ship from Navy Pier. We rode the ('original') Ferris Wheel and ate at Harry Caray's. My camera was dead for most of it. This is the only shot I have.
This is a GIANT statue of Marilyn Monroe on the Magnificent Mile. If you look closely in the background you can see people looking up (making sure she's wearing something).
And of course nothing is complete without your guide to being a true Chicagoan.

Halloween

We had a pretty average Halloween this year. We decorated pumpkins, went to the ward trunk or treat, made costumes (this one's an 'I' not a 'we') and then I had to work Halloween night. Lincoln said we didn't get any trick or treaters, but for some reason we didn't have very much candy left....




Finished product. These pumpkins rotted really fast this year I don't know why.
This is the effort we put in this year. T-shirts and jeans!

It's Back!

I'm pretty sure we will be making our way to McDonald's soon, so that Lincoln can get one of these...



The McRib comes out usually once a year for a limited time. Although I think it's great marketing on McDonald's part I don't see what the obsession is about. It's good, don't get me wrong, but I think part of the novelty is that you can't get it year-round. Luckily, Lincoln is not as bad as an old boss I had. He would eat one twice a day until they were gone. Yuck! One trip I think will be enough for us. If you haven't tried it you should, so you can say that you have.
