So we decided to meet up in Chicago, and last weekend was the chosen time. I had a great deal of fun organizing many of the things we did, and the lovely moms who attended were more than appreciative of my efforts. In addition to a very generous gift certificate to use with Chrissy for Stampin' Up! products, and a wonderful send-up in a live rap on Saturday night complete with crown (look for a YouTube video posting soon), I arrived home from grocery shopping yesterday to find a beautiful flower arrangement waiting for me. Thanks for brightening a very grey week, ladies!
While in Chicago I paid my first visit to "The Bean," a sculpture in Millenium Park that is actually titled "Cloud Gate" by Anish Kapoor. It is totally captivating in its shape and reflectivity! You can see by it's shape why it's called The Bean - it looks like a coffee bean!
I love the abstract effect one gets by just stepping inside the domed part:
People were very into lying down along the edge to get their reflection, so Maureen and I decided to try it out.
We have to say we didn't see the attraction.
Looking forward to our next Seasoned Moms' adventure, whenever and wherever that may be!
