We stopped in Madison on the way out to visit with some college friends. It was great to catch up and really helped divide the trip up nicely so we didn't have to drive 7 straight hours.
Once we got to Chicago we got to meet up with more friends and see their newest addition, Grace. We got lots of snuggles and ate really well. We were there over St. Patrick's day and ate at an Irish Pub and later dined on classic deep dish Chicago pizza.
Chicago highlights included Willis Tower, Adler Planetarium, and Field Museum. The views from Willis Tower were incredible. The boys especially enjoyed standing out on the glass ledge that allowed us to be 103 stories above ground while viewing the city streets with tiny people below.
The planetarium had amazing space exhibits. We all loved learning about the solar system in the awesome domed theater show.
The Field Museum was a beautifully historic place filled with Dinosaurs!
The highlight of the trip had to be Great Wolf Lodge. The boys love water parks and Wisconsin Dells really is the mecca of water parks. It was AWESOME! They had so much fun. The water and room temperature were super warm, short lines, and the rides were so fun. We will definitely be going back.
