And They're Off

Lucky dogs, Owen and Raly (cousin from Denver) set out for Chicago yesterday.  Grandpa Mike and Grandma Rosie are taking them on an "eight-year-old" trip.  They spent the night in Des Moines before continuing on to Chi-Town today.  On the agenda:  White Sox (Socks?) game, Lego World, Navy Pier, dinner on a boat on Lake Michigan, and American Girl Doll Store.  Sounds like a blast!  Sidenote:  Miles plans to go to Grandma Jean's for Diet Pepsi.  He's been looking forward to it for as long as Owen has Chicago.

The travelers, ready to go.

Brotherly love, a few hours before Owen left.
