Sock Monster

Have any of you met the sock monster? I think he is the monster of all monsters. He definitely has me and Alana fooled.
He always manages to eat up not 2 but only 1 sock. We thought we could out smart him and combine all of our onesies. We were bound to find tons of matches, right?
Wrong :( This was the result.
Dang that sock monster.

The city sites

I was amazed by the big buildings and the "mini New York" feel that we found in Chicago.
So many picturesque moments!

How about stepping on a ledge at the top of the 'Sears' tower (now called the Willis Tower). This is the tallest building in the Western Hemisphere. Yikes!
They said 'You're a real dare devil if you lay on your tummy and look down'. Oh, I did the honors alright.
So high up! Everybody jump!

Wow. This was so much fun and such a sight to see.
The famous Chicago bean!

So there is a little taste of the city sites. Next I'll give you some of the city bites. Oh my so cheesy I know. It was such a fantastic city to explore. We were also able to confirm first hand the appropriateness of calling it the 'windy city'. Oh boy!
