Girls' Weekend

The only sad thing about our girls' weekend in Chicago, is that it's over!  We had such a blast.  Chicago, good food, awesome shopping, tons of laughs and closer friendships...It was amazing!

We...

road-tripped with Erin and I at the wheel

talked about samurais and first kisses

ate at Portillo's

shopped at a powerless Ikea...it was hot and dark but we still managed to shop for 4 hours

grabbed a slice of Chicago style pizza at Gino's East

got a little taste of the Jersey Shore just down the road from our hotel

night shopped at Macy's and Urban Outfitters

had cocktails and dessert at Cheesecake Factory

learned that Lucy is hilarious

kept each other awake with snoring and a heartburn-inducing, unborn baby

shopped at Ikea...again, power was back on

shopped at Woodland Mall

learned that Catherine used to be good at hiring skanks and hoes 

ate at Rainforest Cafe

shopped at the Chicago Outlets

drove through an adorable little town...Plainfield (it was not plain)

ate delicious Mexican food at a cute little restaurant

got a first hand look at Sandra's Latina charm

laughed at our server who should have never been hired as such

returned back to st. louis at midnight

rearranged vehicles and all of our goods, and headed home

It was a really good weekend. I feel like I got much closer to these girls, and of course I stocked up on tons of fabric and various household goodies.
