chicago with nana and gramps

Nana and Gramps have started a tradition with the grandkids that when they turn 10, they get to go on a special trip together. Grayson had never been to Chicago, and that is where Gramps grew up, so they decided it would be a great long weekend for the three of them!

I asked Grayson to pick out his favorite pictures for the blog... :)

 All three had lots of fun at the Museum of Science and Industry!!

 and later that evening, they attended a White Sox vs KC Royals game at Comiskey Park

 they took an EXTREME boat ride on the "Sea Dog" where they all got soaked, but loved it!!

 On Sunday morning, they visited the Shedd Aquarium and had a special shark feeding time. So cool!

 And while they flew from Wichita to Chicago, they took the TRAIN home! Gramps used to work on the train while he was in college, and was pumped!

 Gramps had one sleeper car, and Grayson and Nana shared one! What a fun, action-packed weekend together! Grayson had an AMAZING time!

Thanks so much, Nana and Gramps! :)
