Well by we I mean Rob and I went to Chicago! We had a weekend away together and it was much needed. We went with 3 other couples and met another couple there. We went with all of my guy friends from growing up and all of their girlfriends. So much fun!! We left Friday morning before 6 AM so that we could get to Chicago with enough time to make it to the Cubs game.
This is some of the girls before the game
Rob and I during the game...well I should say during the rain delay.
We then were off for cocktail hour at a fun bar back by our hotel. We went into the bar and it started pouring...I'm talking a lot of rain. It then quit and we all thought it was our chance. Well as you can see by the picture below we're all soaked.
I was then able to meet my cousin Kelsey and her boyfriend Mike our for some drinks and appetizers before we had a late dinner with our friends. The restaurant we met them at was so much fun. We also had an amazing waitress who had a way of making me eat things I didn't think I would eat.
Saturday we went on a trolley ride for 3 hours. I have to say this was the highlight of our trip for me. We rented it ourselves so it was just our group. We played music, sang at the top of our lungs and stopped at so many places in Chicago I don't think I've ever stopped.

After our tour on the trolley we went to my friend Chris's apartment and hung out on his rooftop. We had some amazing appetizers that Chris's girlfriend cooked for all of us. We had some Chicago style pizza and a lot of laughs with the best friends a girl could ask for. Not many people meet a group of friends when you are in junior high (some since elementary) and hang out this long.
