Paul's younger brother, Steven (aka:Noodles) is going to school in Champaign, Ill. He wanted us to go to his school's big rivalry football game and Paul and I thought it would be a great opportunity for us to go see the great city of Chicago. It was such a fun trip. Thanks to our families for taking care of Franny while we were gone.

We thought it was interesting/cool that the city had put up congratulatory banners for Obama.
Paul didn't understand why I "wanted a picture of me looking at a picture" but seeing this painting in real life was pretty amazing for me.
Millennium Park = Bizarre!
Cloud Gate ... aka:"Silver Bean"
Crap! I didn't get the whole thing in the picture!
Illinois vs. Ohio. Probably the coldest I've ever been.
Hunting season?
Game day shirts
Here's a little snippet of Fran doing her booty shake. I don't think this would be appropriate in primary, but we'll allow it in Grandma's basement.
