A Weekend Getaway--Chicago & Michigan City


We were blessed to recently meet up with our good friends also hanging out here in the Midwest, plus a few more, at a beach house on Lake Michigan.  Though there was still snow on the ground, it was the perfect place for our weekend adventure.  Preston and I enjoyed an afternoon at the Art Institute of Chicago--knocking off a must-see--before eagerly joining our friends. 

Over the weekend, we:
 played far too many rounds of Pirates Dice and Celebrity
 talked late into the night about our past undergrad days and our future dreams
ate pretzel M&M's until we were sick
enjoyed a windy day in Chicago with the best deep dish pizza yet (once again thanks to Lou Malnati's)
stepped dangerously onto the frozen lake for a squinty picture
and bade farewell energized and grateful for lasting friendships.












It wouldn't be a get-together without a photo bomb by Cody.



Thanks for adding to our collection of valuable memories with you all.  Until next time.

  1. Man, vacations are just the best when you go with people who actually know their way around. We get spoiled having friends like you guys.
