SETTLED IN!

We pulled out of Peoria Friday August 14th to make the
three hour drive to Schaumburg where we would be spending
the night in a hotel until we could move into our apartment
the next morning. Driving to Schaumburg was not as easy a
trip as usually, it was a continual down pour from Chillicothe
to Schaumburg.

Saturday morning the 15th of August we arrived
at our home in Chicago. We are on the second floor of
the brownstone and are enjoying the short time that
we have spent here already.


The view from our front window. You can see the lights
from Wrigley field and enjoy watching all the people walk
down the street before and after the game. It is crazy.
We have enjoyed the conveniences of public transportation.
We have taken the train twice downtown and have ridden
the bus 3 times already. The boys are enjoying riding the
buses/trains. They play and flirt with all the ladies during
the rides.
We took the bus (a 15 min ride) to Lincoln Park Zoo this
morning and walked around and enjoyed this great
attraction in our neighborhood. It is only about 2miles from
our house and is free. The boys and I will probably be spending
lots of time here.
The Safari Carousel


The Gardens at Lincoln Park Zoo. So Beautiful.
