Birthday Fun

 

I can’t believe I celebrated my 29th birthday this weekend!

 image

Birthdays are BIG in our house. We started Saturday off with breakfast at Mad Donnas. They have the best biscuits and gravy in the city (you can’t think about the calories!).

Then we ventured over to the flea market at the fair grounds. I had never been and was shocked at how many vendors they have! If you like to antique shop this is the place to go. I found an antique Avon glass bottle that I filled with olive oil.(very pretty and only $5)

My special day continued by meeting a group of friends for dinner at Urban Grub. I had the shrimp and grits and they were amazing!

After dinner we went to Zanies’s Comedy Club. Chris Franjola was headlining and he was hilarious!

It was a great birthday and I am so blessed to have a wonderful husband and friends to share it with. Thank you to everyone who made my day special!

A Quick Chicago Getaway

 

I love spontaneous trips and my husband surprised me with this one two weekends ago. We are serious trip planners and do a ton of research before we head out to a new destination. We want to see and do it all! I think we accomplished a lot in a one night stay in Chicago.

We took the 7am flight from Nashville to Chicago and landed in Chicago approx. 9am. Took a cab to our beautiful hotel the Conrad Hilton

Dropped the bags and headed out to find some coffee (much needed after waking up at 5am!) We found Intelligentsia Coffee and I loved watching their unique brewing method. Great coffee and a great find!

Not to waste any time, we got our coffee to go and headed out to Michigan Avenue. Magnificent only begins to describe the seemingly endless avenue of shops. I was in shopping heaven. Since our time was limited, we bypassed any shops that we have in Nashville and conquered Michigan Avenue in a few short hours.

No trip to Chicago would be complete without having some deep dish pizza! We headed to Uno. Wow! It was the best pizza I have ever had!

Then it was off to Wrigley. The Cubs were playing the Cardinals. Side Note: We tend to plan our vacations to coincide with sporting events.

All around the stadium are rooftop decks where you can watch the game. They usually include all you can eat and drink. That sounds like an awesome way to watch a sporting event!

We didn’t have tickets to the game (or a rooftop deck) but there were tons of packed out sports bars around the stadium. We quickly found a bar full of loud Cubs fans and enjoyed the rest of game. After the game (Cubs won!) we found a fan area outside Wrigley. We stopped to listen to the band and we were hooked! Rod Tuffcurls and the Benchpress (LOVE the name) is my new favorite party band. http://rodtuffcurls.com/

The BEST part is they say “friends” after every song! I was meant to discover them!

Sadly, we had to leave Wrigley. We headed to Navy Pier to get some sightseeing in before dinner. It was super touristy but I know it’s a “must do” for your first visit to Chicago.

We went back to the hotel and got ready for dinner. We went to Hub 51 and the food was great! Side note: Ladies dress up for this one! Heels and high fashion are a must do to fit in with the crowd.

After dinner we headed back to hotel. We had an early flight the next morning back to Nashville. I love Chicago and can’t wait to go back! (we are already thinking family Christmas trip this year!?!?)

Back on Track

 

This past year has been a whirlwind to say the least. I achieved my goal of finishing my law degree and taking the Bar exam. During this process I lost touch with friends, missed social engagements, and put Dress for the Game on the backburner. Putting my life on hold was extremely difficult but I had to keep reminding myself that it would pay off in the end. I am blessed with family and friends that are understanding and supportive. I would not have made it through this past year without them. I want to give a huge THANK YOU to everyone that believed in me and who continue to be supportive through this process!

I am ready and eager to get back to blogging, building Dress for the Game, and returning to a more “normal” life. Here is a sneak peak of my blogging plans

Monday-Travel

Tuesday- Fitness and Food

Wed-Open

Thurs-Events and Other Happenings 

Friday-Fashion

I may be getting in over my head but I’m up to the challenge!
