On the agenda for today was Lincoln Park Zoo & The Chicago White Sox/Cubs game. We loaded the van up and headed to get something to eat before heading to the zoo. We ended up sitting in a traffic jam for almost three hours...to go a whole 26 miles. The hubby kept us entertained...

...and the kids were REALLY well behaved! We finally made it to the zoo around 2::00.

After leaving the zoo we headed to the ballpark to find a parking spot. The ballpark was located on the "south" side of Chicago (which is the rougher part of town...from what I understand). When we got to the ballpark the gates were still closed, but the kids had some money left so they were able to buy a few souvenirs (I forgot to take any pictures of them)...but here is what they walked away with.
Morgan-White Sox Key Chain
Spencer-White Sox T-shirt
Haylee- White Sox Shirt & White Sox baseball (for her brother)
Harley-Pink baseball
Gracie-White Sox stuffed animal & White Sox baseball (she bought for Spencer)

After the game we grabbed a box of White Castle's, let the kids change into their PJ's, switched seats in the vehicle, gassed up the van & headed toward KY. The kids were asleep in no time.
