High School Musical Ice Tour

Okay, I am trying to keep up with this. Last night Katie, Amelia, and Elijah went to see High School Musical Ice tour with the Nicholsons. I was a little nervous about Elijah going because I took him to see the Wiggles and he got nervous and wanted me to hold him the entire time. But according to Katie he loved it. So did Amelia but I was not worried about her. They were singing the songs and dancing to the music. Katie said that they were in the second row and that her feet were on the ice. Amelia told me that Zeke, one of the characters, was "cleaning up" and threw ice shavings on them. So according to the way they were acting when I saw them tells me that they loved it, since that is all they were talking about and singing of their songs. Here is some pictures of them at the show.

Okay, so the next day I took a quick trip to Chicago with my friend Adam to pick up some friends coming back from England. Adam and I had a good time reconnecting on the way up to Chicago. It has been a long time since I have gotten to hang out with him, between my work and school and his work and work. We had a good time. We ate at a place called pockets for lunch, which was extrememly good. If you see his wife do not tell here we ate there because she loves to eat there. So from there we got back on the highway to head to O'hare. Adam missed our exit so we had to get off at next exit to turn around. The only problem was there was no exit for O'hare coming back on 94s. So after we had gone past the point of where we knew we should have gone we turned around again. We finally made it there. We picked up the Gardners around 2:30 and headed back to Morton. Once again, Adam went past our exit so we had to turn around again. We finally got on 55s and made it home. The Gardners did not fall asleep on us at all. They told us all about their time in England and how much they enjoyed London and hanging out with the Kiesers.

Okay so I got blog set up and figured I needed to post something. I really have nothing to share right now, except the fact that I have alot of studying to do the rest of this semester. I have a couple of tests to study for tomorrow though. This weekend Adam and i are going up to Chicago to pick up Matt and Karen from the airport. I hope they are not to tired to talk to us and share some stories of England with us. Who am I kidding. Gardner can fall asleep anywhere and Karen will be wiped out from the jet lag. Oh well, I guess I will be able to talk to Adam some more. that is all I have right now. I will try to keep up with this and also figure out how to add pictures, video slides and music to this. Maybe I can get Katie started in on this also.
