We had a really fun trip to Chicago over Ryan's birthday weekend.
On the way there, we stopped at Illinois State to see where Noni and Papa went to college.
Our first order of business when we got to Chicago was eating pizza.
On Friday morning, Aunt Winnie took us to putt putt golf.
In the afternoon we went to the mall to visit Peppa Pig Land.
We went out to dinner at Pilot Pete's and it was a big hit.
On Saturday morning we drove to La Lumiere to see Uncle Alex.
Ryan got his first birthday gift of the day from Alex - an astronaut landing module.
The kids couldn't believe this is where Grandpa and Uncle Alex went to school.
We drove over to Notre Dame and had some time to explore campus before Chris and Ellie went to the game.
While they were in the stadium we relaxed in LaFortune and Ryan got a nap.
Ellie had a great time at the game.
We went back to Uncle Bill and Aunt Winnie's house for the birthday celebration.
We loved playing with their dog, Carly.
The next day, we played at the park and had lunch before driving home.
