Chicago trip, now with 100% more husband

Hello lovelies,

Last month Bob and I took a trip to Chicago. Well, I took the trip for work, and he came to join me. It was so much fun!

Here are a few highlights of outfits that I wore, places that I ate things at, etc.

First off, I redeemed my sad ice cream sandwich experience from the last trip we went on.

Unsure about tastyness factor:


Ok, it is actually pretty good:


yay! sandwich!

(note chocolate residue on face associated with vigorous eating)

We went to see this HILARIOUS play called Late Night Catechism:


We also got to see alot of impromptu art, stumbling upon not one but two awesome public galleries.

Karen Savage had an exhibit up at the Water Tower Place gallery. Her photograms of lace gowns and handkerchiefs were so beautiful!



Then, at Navy Pier, we spent hours going through their extensive stained glass museum, which was a total surprise and delight! I took so many pictures, here are some of my favorites:









Overall, we had a fabulous time! I travel to Chicago a few times a year, but it was really awesome to have Bob there to show around - it was his first time!

And, for making it this far through a super long post, I leave you with this gem:

Ben Franklin, what what?
