Warning: this is a picture heavy post!
We drove to Chicago Thursday after a short work day. We got to Steve & Melanie’s house and chatted into the wee hours of the morning!
Friday morning Mel was a wonderful host and made us blueberry pancakes before venturing out into the city!
We headed downtown to the John Hancock building. We decided not to do the Signature Room for lunch since it was still early and just enjoyed the views from the 95th floor!
Lake Michigan & Navy Pier
Lake Shore Drive along Lake Michigan
After the John Hancock building we walked a few blocks down to Nike Town! I was a good girl and only got 3 new head bands! I really wanted some of the new shorts they have out now! They are in fun colors and patterns!!
After Nike Town we shopped at Water Tower Place. Kyle found a few major scores…American Eagle jeans for $15!!!
Kyle is a baseball fan as are Steve & Melanie so we did a drive by of Wrigley Field! The bleacher seats on top of the houses across the street were so cool! I had no idea there was anything like that!
We headed out of the city for a late lunch. Portillos! I guess it’s a Chicago thing to do!!
I was boring and ordered a chicken sandwich. But Kyle got their famous Italian beef sandwich & a hot dog! I didn’t get a picture of the Italian beef…but here’s the hot dog!
The next morning we had breakfast at a cute little diner that seemed quite famous!! Kyle ordered the strawberry pancakes & LOVED all the whip cream that came with it! :)
The rest of the day we pretty much just shopped! Which was super fun!! I will take a picture of my look to post later! We also fit in an afternoon siesta before going out for supper.
We wanted to do another Chicago thing….so we went for pizza at Giordanos!
