A Disney Day in Chicago

 For most people, the ideals of the holiday season center on spending time with friends and family.  My husband and I found a way to incorporate Disney magic into a day trip with our extended family to downtown Chicago.  Chicago’s Museum of Science and Industry currently has an exhibit titled “D23 Treasures of the Walt Disney Archives” which runs through May 4.  We were also lucky enough to go while they also had their “Christmas of the World and Holiday of Lights” display which includes a 45 foot tree with Mickey flair.  Read more
