Chicago

Drew and I went to Chicago to celebrate our two year anniversary. We had the best time and it was so nice to spend 5 days with my wonderful husband! It was kind of cold but we brought tons of warm clothes so we were fine. We did all of the touristy stuff when we were there. We went to the top of the Sears Tower, ate deep dish pizza, went to a show, did a bus top tour, went to the aquarium, walked the magnificent mile, went to Millennium Park, went to Navy Pier and other things. We were there for the St. Patrick's day parade and the dying of the river. It was crazy.....people everywhere all decked out in green. There are tons of pictures below.


The Sears Tower. I am not going to lie, I was a little scared at the top!

Navy Pier. We rode the Ferris wheel.


At Gino's eating the best pizza. Yum!!!


Out with our friend Owen who lives in Chicago.


This little boy was at the St. Patrick's day parade. Look at his sign. The part that is cut off says (girls only). Too cute! I am sure he made a fortune.


Notice the green river behind us. It was very bright! They use orange dye to make it that color.


We ate lunch at the Ralph Lauren store and it was awesome! The restaurant is small but beautiful and they had delicious food!


Here we are at Jersey Boys. The show was awesome! Drew and I both loved it!


Ice Skating. Drew was not very good. He had to stay by the railing haha. Finally, one thing that I am better at.


Me pretending that I am good. There is no way I would try that on the ice.

We went to eat at this French restaurant called Bistro 110. The food was unbelievable! If you are ever in Chicago you have to go.


Lake Michigan. You can't see it in this picture but there was ice in the lake. Just looking at it made us cold.


Drew with the shark at the aquarium. We were bummed because the part with the whales, dolphins and seals (all of the good stuff) was closed for remodeling.


At Pizzeria Uno. The pizza was great but not quite as good as Gino's. The restaurant is adorable though!
