A Visit From Mom and Dad Hanemaayer























My parents came to visit the end of March and so we took a trip into the city.  Our first stop was the Field Museum, it was pretty neat!  I want to try and get back before the mummy display moves on.  The main draw this time was Sue the T-Rex.  She's the largest dinosaur skeleton around that's so well intact.  Pretty impressive!  The museum also had a children's area that was more hands on which was fun for the boys.
After we had enough browsing (quite exhausting, you know) we went for a driving tour of downtown Chicago.  Jerry has certainly improved his city driving habits and my stomach was left in the lurch.  :)  But we made it safe and sound to UNO's Pizzeria, home of the original Chicago Style Pizza.  I've had a couple different variations on deep dish pizza, as has Jerry, but UNO's is definitely the best of them all!!  Very fun and yummy.  And even though the wait was about 2 hours, no worries... we went shopping :)  Bloomingdales was right across the street so that was fun, and the Harley Davidson store was just a block away.  Good times!
Too bad Jerry had the camera... no photos of him :(
