Last Saturday, Mom, Dad and I piled in the car and headed out for Chicago, which is where Kyoko Obachan lives (for those that don't know, that's Mom's Mom and Obachan is a Japanese word for grandmother). We were headed there to celebrate Christmas. This was pretty great since a long road trip like this and Chicago and Christmas are all new things to me.
We had a lot of fun, that's for sure. Kyoko Obachan lives downtown just like we do at home, but it's so big in Chicago and there was a lot going on. Though sometimes the silliest things catch my eye for long periods of time, as you can see, the views at Obachan's were plenty nice to keep me interested.
Aunt Rebecca and Uncle Todd were there too, so that was fun. I did some hanging out in the condo and I also did some shopping and hanging out in the city. I think I had the most fun on Monday when I went out shopping with Mom, Dad, and Kyoko Obachan.
One funny story was when Obachan kept showing me some friends of mine in the mirror. Some pretty good looking guys if I do say so myself. However, there was this one guy I didn't like as well who cried a lot. The other guys seemed to never cry and they were pretty cool.
And let me just say that this Christmas thing is off to a great start. I got lots of fun stuff from Obachan and Ed and Todd and Rebecca. In fact, even the blanket that Todd and Rebecca got for Mom and Dad has come in pretty handy in some naps Mom and I have taken. So, all told, a great trip.
