Saturday Sue and I took a bus trip to Chicago to see Wicked. The whole experience and day out was FABULOUS! When we arrived in Chicago before the play the bus dropped us off to do some shopping and eating. Well Sue and I opted to shop over eat....go figure. Our first stop was American Girl Place. Of course the place was packed and once you get in the store there is no control. I think Emma got 3 outfits, a tee shirt, a back pack, and a sleeping bag. Next we were off to the Disney store. Yes I know we had one in Lafayette but still. I bought the girls both a beach towel for vacation and Emma a few tees that were on sale. Our next adventure was to find our Garrett's popcorn. Now if you have ever had Garrett's popcorn you would know how devastating it was that it was CLOSED! So disappointing! After hitting up McDonald for our lunch, because again we like to shop more then spending time to eat, we went to the Hershey store before getting on the bus to be dropped off at the theater. Once we were at the theater we saw another Garrett's popcorn....don't worry when we came out of the play the line was wrapped around the building! :( The play was AMAZING! I had a great time and would love to see it again.
Oh...yes Chloe did get something. Emma was not the only one with gifts. Chloe received a onesie from the Hershey store and Wicked and Jason a HUGE dark chocolate bar!

Sue here to echo Nicole's words on the great day that we had, I am looking forward to her getting a job from that "connection" we met on the bus so Nicole will take me back to Chicago for a whole day of shopping. and you can be we will NEVER leave Chicago again without Garretts Popcorn. Smelling and not getting any was pure torture! Wicked rules!! Sue
