Chicago!

So earlier this month Sara and I took a weekend trip up to Chicago. She had never been there and I have only been once, but it was a few years ago and we went up and back in two days and spent the time looking for an apartment for our roommates at the time, so we didnt get to see the city. So I was really excited, and the city was so much fun! We were total tourists though, even paying for one of their "hop on, hop off" tour bus deals. But we got to see pretty much everything we were wanting to, and had alot of fun seeing all of the different things. We figure next time we can spend time doing more "Chicago" things, as opposed to the touristy attractions. Haha. Anywho, we stayed at a super fancy hotel right near the water and had fun seeing the different museums and shopping down on the Mag Mile. Now that I know more of what is there, I am excited to get to go back!


It was super cloudy and windy our first day, but the Buckingham Fountain was still super spectacular.



It cleared up a couple days later and the water was so pretty!






We had wayy to much fun taking pictures at the Bean!


















2nd largest department store in the WORLD!! This was one GIGANTIC Macy's!!



I can't wait until we get to take our next trip in a few months!!!

Me

I'm a newlywed with a love for the little things in life- sipping a cappuccino at a local coffee shop in the sunshine, art that seems to make no sense, the smile my husband gets sometimes when I catch him watching me, the cool breeze in the fall when the leaves are changing, my dog when she has somehow manages to wedge herself under my hand and I find myself petting her unknowingly, the smell of freshly cut grass, the sounds of the ocean, taking photos of instances you can never get back. I feel too much about things but may not always say it. I adore my mother. You'll find I take a lot of pictures. La vita รจ bella.
