Damien Plays in the Windy City

Damien took yet another plane trip. This time to Chicago to visit Grandpa William (Yum Yum) and Grandma Locey (Lo Lo). Feeling adventurous and cheap, the trip started out with an hour long BART ride. Damien was a champ, he just loves to people watch just like his mommy. And once again, Damien was great on the flight, and then the hour long train ride in freezing Chicago. He is SUCH a trooper.

The entire Craig clan had a great time. We spent the long weekend relaxing in William and Locey's gorgeous and cozy condo, enjoying food and exercise at their super nice athletic club, going for walks in the cold, and enjoying some fine food. On Sunday in particular, we went to the Goose Island Brew Pub for brunch and then to Shaw's for some oysters and sushi. Damien was quite the show stopper at Shaw's where he sat at the bar with us, made the rounds around the restaurant and then danced with Yum Yum to the Jazz band! It was quite a day. Thank you William and Locey for the great visit, we look forward to coming back soon.
