Black Friday

What an odd term, Black Friday. Well, we set off for downtown Chicago to check out Michigan Avenue. The chilly, windy conditions did not keep us from braving the crowds. We headed to Gap, Disney Store, Burberry's, H&M, Needless Markup (um Nieman Marcus), Saks, then Water Tower Place, North Face, and more. Not many bargains to be found, but we enjoyed browsing, just checking everything out.

By 11 or so, things were getting a bit packed. So we hit the road and went to our favorite hot dog place, Irving's for Red Hot Lovers in Wilmette. Best cheese dog I've had oh since the last time we were there, exactly one year ago today.

Hi my name is G.M.H.. I am going to Chicago this Thanksgiving! I am SO SO SO excited.
But we haft to drive to Chicago.I know I am complaning but...I don't wnt to drive all the way to...
CHICAGO.I have 53 things to do in the car.

We are staying at Grandma & Grandpa's house. They have lots of TVs. Thanksgiving Day we'll go to my aunt & uncle's house (and cousins too). They have an indoor pool right next to the kitchen. So we can have a snack if we get hungry while we are swimming. My big sister A will not swim, but she won't have as much fun either.
