The day was bright and beautiful. We left our hotel and walked north down Michigan Avenue to the Hancock Building where we went up 92 floors and looked out over the City. We also did the Tilt where the sides of the glass rotate out over the building.
We went to Giordanias for stuffed pizza.
We visited the famous Garrett's popcorn.
Our first family we visited was Karina, her mother, and her children Axel, Emily
Our next visit was to the Gusemond family. They had parrots that talked the whole time.
We went to the stake center on Pulanski where we saw the Midway Ward. Before Garrett went in he told us he may not be too remembered. Not so, he was a rock star. We went in to the meeting that was kind of like a missionary homecoming. The Bishop conducting asked if Garrett would come and bear his testimony. Sweetest. Afterwards he was swarmed by people that adored and loved him. Garrett had been a zone leader in this area and then his final six week transfer as a junior companion.
Picture with the missionaries serving in the Midway ward. We forwarded this to the missionaries' parents for an early Thanksgiving present.
Ricardo shook our hands at least 3 or 4 times - the cutest. Adilia and Omar
At about 9:00 we went and visited the Rojas family. This is where Garrett lived while he was zone leader in Midway.
We met and their cutest kids, Santi (Santiago),
We also drove by Garrett's last apartment on his mission in Midway. Hhhmmm. Good thing we didn't know how bad it really was in condition and safety.
