Chicago!

I'm escaping from Tennessee and heading up to Chicago this weekend to see one of my besties, Stephanie. I've only been to Chicago once, and that was 12 years ago. In December. Can't really see a whole lot when you're bundled up like an Eskimo. I'm really excited to be going. We're gonna check out Navy Pier and hit up the Field Museum.

I want to check out the Chicago Bean, cause it looks like a giant silver jelly bean, and who doesn't love that?

And a few people have told me to go see the Buckingham Fountain as well. Isn't she pretty?
I'm sure I'll be taking lots of photos and I'll probably end up making a scrapbook which, of course, I'll share with all of you. :)

One Fish Two Fish

Mom and I have been playing around with the idea of driving down to Atlanta for a weekend and going to the Georgia Aquarium. I love love love aquariums. (This coming from the girl who can do the New England Aquarium in 29 minutes flat. I've been many many times.) I caught a glimpse of it on an episode of the Little Couple on TLC and immediately Googled it. The Ocean Voyager exhibit has over 6.3 million gallons of water and also boasts the largest viewing window in North America. I have to go. Have to.
