oh yah, me and the husbo are celebrating our fifth anniversary in the “windy city” and having such a great time together.
there has been lots of
walking,
relaxing, (thanks for the boutique hotel suggestion, Erin–we are loving everything about it!)
shopping,
and eating, oh the eating……
deep dish chicago pizza from Giordano’s.
we had the BEST steak dinner at Mastro’s thanks to Jon’s aunt and uncle (many thanks to you both!).
it was really a magical night and the fun just keeps on coming!

Congrats Andi!! My husband and I are coming up on 5 years in 2012. I am so jealous that you are in Chicago!! I am from a town an hour away from the city and I miss it dearly. I especially miss the weather this time of year. Have loads of fun!!!
the weather is COLD! we’re having a great time, though!
My hometown (well, the burbs)! I’m super jealous. Hubs & I ate at the Mastro’s here week…yummo!
i didn’t know you were from Chicago. isn’t Mastro’s just so GOOD!? thanks for reading
Awesome pictures
So glad to hear that you are having a good time….what hotel did you actually decide on? I can’t wait to hear more about your trip! Have so much fun!!!
we went with the Hotel Monaco and it is GREAT! thanks for the recommendation
Oh how fun for you guys! You know that I lived there until I was 30 (well in the suburbs) and didn’t make it there all that much – except that I did work downtown once, but I got to work in the dark and left in the dark! So whenever we go home to visit we try to squeeze in a visist for at least some of that PIZZA!! Lucky, lucky you . . . can’t get anything like it anywhere! BUT, if you have time you HAVE to stop at Hot Doug’s – it’s by Wrigley Field, and Anthony Bourdain did a show at his place and they have THE best hot dogs and sausages that you could ever want. And on Fridays they have duck fat fries . . . and people wait in line about an hour and a half before they open, but worth the wait.
Oh and by the way you look adorable!
Just…..so…..JeALouS that you got Chicago PiZZa!! ; )
I didn’t know you lived around Chicago! so cool! thanks for the recommendations!
I’m so glad you guys made it there and are having fun. I can’t to hear all about it! Eat some more for me!
Wow! What a beautiful anniversary trip! Glad you’re having such a good time. I’ve always wanted to go to Chicago– and being from Mpls, I’m really surprised I haven’t been there yet! Happy Anniversary!
