State-by-State: Illinois

Now here we have a special man,
waiting in our book.
Do you wonder who it is?  Come and take a look!
L is for Lincoln,
Illinois is his land.
he was president long ago
and known to be fair and grand.
from L is for Lincoln:  An Illinois Alphabet

The girls completed their scrapbook and lap book this week on the state of Illinois.  
Lauren visited Chicago with Dad last year.  We looked through all her adventures with dad, and we discovered just what we would "cook" for Illinois.  Dad LOVES Gino's East Pizza.  We ordered a couple of their famous deep dish pizzas for dinner at the end of the week!  They ship them frozen in dry ice!  We received them on Thursday, and we kept them hidden in the freezer until Saturday night. Boy, was Dad surprised!!!!
