The Last Day :(

Today was the last day before our friends had to go back home. Being blessed with yet another beautiful spring day, we headed back into Chicago for more activities. We decided to go to the Adler Planetarium.
Ready to take on the "universe!"
Adler Planetarium


Infrared light demonstration. Can you see us?
Ready to see Elmo (or as she calls him: "apple") in the Skyview Theater. During the show, she looked pretty amazed at everything.....she was speechless, but glued to the screen.
Playing with the exhibits.
Learning about the mass of objects.

Out on the deck by the Galileo Cafe. Yet another beautiful shot of Chi-City.



One last picture by Kaila's favorite exhibit/show.

Wow! What a week, and like most vacations, it came and went. So many memories in such a short time. We did a lot of activities, and ate A LOT of food. From the Field Museum to the Sears Tower, from the Chicago Premium Outlets to the Navy Pier, what a blast. We ate everything from Fushi Yami sushi in DeKalb to a magnificent italian dinner at Maggiano's. Even with the eating out, we still had some awesome home cooking, from Jen's adobo and bibingka (SARAP NAMAN!) to corn chowder and banana/blueberry pancakes. Such a fun time spent with three of our closest and dearest friends. Kaila will miss her three aunties; Shannon even taught Kaila how to say "auntie." She really bonded with the three of them and we know the three of them bonded with Kaila.

We will miss them very much, and we pray that God will reunite us soon.

I know it will be so sad when they leave:( You guys went to a lot of neat places. Next time we come and see you, please take us there too. I think the Bean is so awesome. Ladies, thanks for spending time to visit them in Illinois. Take care and visit us in Idaho.
