A Furry Friend

 Last week we had a visitor (Marlee Sue) that came and stayed with us.  Her family was on vacation somewhere warm!  She's a Gramma dog and needed special attention, and we were happy to spoil her!  Last Friday, Anna and I drove to Chicagoland to deliver her back to her house and we had a chance to stay for a night and explore their neighborhood a little bit.

For dinner we went to a little restaurant that reminded us both of Panera bread.  It was a very cute place with delicious food. I ordered 1/2 ham and swiss panini with a cup of macaroni and cheese. 
 
Anna had the mac and cheese and a smoothie! We had great conversation and got to see the Metra trains go by and visit some of the local shops in the downtown area.  We loved living in the "city" for a night!
 
When we stayed at my friend's house, we found this on their guest room bed.  Isn't it SO COOL?!!!
She's so creative!!
 More on the road trip weekend tomorrow.  We will be traveling from Illinois to Iowa!  Stay tuned!
