Thanks to all of our friends -- Petrov's, Lenzo's, Burian's, Smitka's, Churilla's, and Gour's -- who were able to support the Midwest LAM Foundation at their fundraiser. Although all of the Live auctions were way out of our league and most of the silent auctions as well -- we were able to snag one of the silent auctions: a Chicago Fire Package. It included:
- two tickets to a 2010 Fire game
- two authentic jerseys, signed by players
- one soccer ball, signed by their star: Blanco
- and an awesome Chicago Fire scarf
We were able to have such a fun weekend in Chicago with our friends. For those that came from further away (Petrov's & Gour's) -- they stayed at the same hotel with us, the Hotel Allegro. Saturday evening we had a nice supper out with the Petrov's (Morton IL) at the Kinzie Street Chop House. Then late Sunday morning, we had an awesome brunch with the Gour's (Elkhart IN) at the Grand Lux Cafe. Great food and great company!
We thank everyone who was able to make the trip to Chicago as well as everyone who couldn't attend but contributed financially to the cause. Also, those that wanted to attend but were turned away because the event sold out!
Love, the Benich's!!!
