On our recent trip to Chicago, we happened on the most amusing window display. Not the usual tall skinny faceless models with gorgeous clothes on, this window display made people laugh and take LOTS of photos! It was so very fun and we didn't mind standing out in the rain to laugh.  Housed in a window of WGN studios right next to the river at Michigan Avenue, each part of the peeps window display was so very creative.

 

The bunnies were so cool and I couldn't stop looking! 

From Mary Poppins (which we saw and loved) to a hilarious art museum tableau, to a "peeps" side show, to a parade with Peeprogis - this is creativity at its finest. Let's explore...

If you're in downtown Chicago, please stop by the windows soon to laugh yourself silly at these great peeps!  GO quickly, before they are eaten (we all know they taste best stale)...
