Spring Break Trip to Chicago

Over Spring Break we took a 3-day trip to Chicago.  We had a great time seeing the sites and enjoying some good meals.  The weather was beautiful with temperatures in the 80's, wonderful for March!

Kamryn and Kaelen very excited to be in Chicago!

Everyone loved to see Chicago from the 103rd floor

Kamryn was in a great mood!

No fear here!

The girls both really liked the experience
