Foster?....Foster?....Anyone?

OH YEAH.....BOW...BOW....CHICKA....CHICKA

CHICAGO!

How could they possibly be expected to go to school on a day like this?  Kassi's 4th grade class got to tour Chicago today....not exactly like Ferris Bueller, but that just seemed like a fun title :P

Sea Stars at Shedd Aquarium...she loved this part!  She is still hoping to be a Vet someday.

ON TOP OF THE WORLD!....or the Hancock Building :)  Man, this brings back so many memories from my college days and being so close to the city....there's a restaurant at the top of this building....it's a little expensive...well, it was in college, but there used to be an area of it where you could just go for dessert and coffee....my roommate and I would always end our day trips there to watch the sunset on top of the world :)  If our table wasn't next to a window..this sounds crazy, but it's true....the ladies bathroom had an incredible view of the city.  You know how you walk into a room you've never been in before and if something totally out of the ordinary meets your vision....you feel a little scared.....that happened the first time we opened that bathroom door, but after that...it was a great excuse to powder our noses :)  This is the ladies bathroom on the 96th floor....best bathroom EVER once you get over the awkward feeling that you are in the bathroom and the whole world can see you!

Kassi at Navy Pier with her buds

The Cheesecake Factory....now I'm jealous (kidding....sort-of) they do have the most amazing 

White Chocolate Raspberry Truffle....

Just start the song again....OH YEAH....BOW....BOW....CHICKA....CHICKA....CHEESECAKE!  In my opinion, that cheesecake deserves it's own song.

It is probably really bad that some of my best memories of Chicago revolve around food....

THERE ARE SOME VERY WORTHY CALORIES IN THAT TOWN!

I'm glad Kassi had so much fun with her classmates!  

Don't miss it, anyone!

There is a Cheesecake song.....just found one :) Maybe I HAVE reached the end of the internet.

and sung by a famous Chicago Jazz Musician...it is meant to be added to this blog...
