End of Summer 2008

We continued to enjoy many activities in Chicago over the summer.


We took an architectural boat tour on the Chicago River. In the background are the Wrigley Building and the Chicago Tribune Tower.

The kids played in the fountain outside our dorm.

We played often at the Lake Michigan beaches.

The Art Institute of Chicago has American Gothic and fun things for the kids.

Lakeside parks were fun.

Joshua's favorite ride at Six Flags was Superman.




One of Zachary's favorite rides at Six Flags was the boat ride. He said the log ride was too scary.




We saw fireworks in Grant Park near Buckingham Fountain.

University of Illinois at Chicago had a great swimming pool for kids.

Some pictures of our dorm.





For her birthday breakfast, Megan wanted to eat outside at a sidewalk cafe near our dorm.



The kids loved riding the L train. Here we were on our way to Wrigley Field.



On Megan's birthday we watched the Chicago Cubs at Wrigley Field.




BYU interns celebrated with Megan as she turned 10.





After Chicago, we returned to Provo and then enjoyed a trip to Lake Powell.





A couple of weeks after school started, Megan returned to Shriners' Hospital to have screws removed from her ankle. She used crutches for a couple of days, but then has been walking fine ever since. Her stitches are almost healed.





Joshua and his friend Taylor went to their first Boy Scout Camp at Maple Dell in September.
