7 Month Recap in 7 Days: Chicago in June

 Fisch, a couple of our friends, and I drove down to Chicago at the end of June for my cousin, Maren's, birthday and the added bonus of seeing our friend, Megan, who was in town for business.  It was an awesome little weekend trip full of seeing the sights, having fun, good food, good drinks, and of course good company!

1. Chicago! 2. Navy Pier 3. Ferris Wheel at Navy Pier 4. Millenium Park 5. Fun at the Bean 6. Maren <3 Rupert... and Brye 6. Whirlyball

P.S. Quick note on Whirlyball... It. Is. Amazing.  I think I found my sport.  It is a cross between bumper cars, lacross, basketball and hockey.  Click the link to find out more and watch video!

Happy Birthday Cousin

I spent last weekend in Chicago for my cousin Maren's birthday.  We are only 20 days apart and have grown up together.  I can't believe she is 26 and I am soon to be.

Yay Chicago!

Girls Weekend in Chicago

I had a wonderful time on the annual Chicago trip with my girls last weekend!
We...
- Window shopped
- Spent an hour in line waiting to buy Garrett's Popcorn (Chicago mix, cheese and caramel, is the best!)
- Spent a leisurely evening drinking wine and talking in the room before heading out on the town
- Took a random limo ride to dinner
- Ate at Ed Debevics (50's Style diner with a wait staff that is supposed to act rude)
- Danced the night away...and felt very old when we got tired and left by 12:30 a.m.
- Explored Millennium Park

 

I hope even as our lives change we still have these little get togethers :)
