The Guerrini Family: Chicago Auto Show

Since Miles is totally obsessed with cars, we decided to take a trip to the Chicago Auto Show. John and I decided to make this day trip a surprise. Which honestly was very hard to do! Everyday I wanted to tell him about our exciting adventure that we had planned.... but I managed to keep it to myself.

So after the long drive to Chicago and the long walk through McCormick Center .... we entered the Auto Show. He was one very happy and excited little boy! I wish I could say that Sarah was as excited, but cars aren't really her thing. She did end up enjoying herself, as she imaged herself behind the wheel of several cars! Watching her getting in and sitting behind the driving wheel, made me and John realize how fast she is growing up. Yes, we already know she's growing up fast. But it was like we could see into the future with her and it was scary (but in a good way)!

The first couple of hours the kids had a blast! Then we went back to our car for lunch and snacks I packed. I wasn't interested in paying crazy prices to eat at the Auto Show... but hey, in this economy I watch pennies like crazy! Anyways, after a little food to recharge, we went back for another hour. By then the kids were worn out and tired, plus it got crowded there. We lucked out in the morning, cause it wasn't busy. But after lunch was another story.

All in all it was a fun day! And we'll probably need to go back next year for our Future Mechanic!
