Our church friends Gloria and Bruce invited Andy and me to the 20th anniversary of a preschool and counseling center (Smart Love) they support. The event was last night in the Mid-America Club on the 80th floor of the Aon Building downtown. We arrived just in time to see the sunset over the city.
Cocktail hour featured these pretty gin drinks.
Andy and Bruce talking.
Gloria looking over the items in the silent auction. Andy put bids in for a few items but we didn't win anything.
The view to the south. You can see the face fountains in Millennium Park and the Field Museum.
Look at this fancy salad with all the greens wrapped in a cucumber slice. I gave the cucumber to Andy.
We both had the chicken for dinner and it was really good.
They had a short program during dinner and a live auction for a few items. The audience played a game of heads or tails. You put your hands on your head or tail and the emcee flipped a virtual coin on his phone. I was one of the last four standing and had to go on stage. Last man standing won a restaurant gift card - wasn't me.
I liked how they stuck the "20" in the dessert.
