I had a fantastic weekend with the ladies. We had a friend arrive in from LA for a conference and of course, it was time to get out and enjoy all that the city of Chicago has to offer during the St. Patrick's Day celebration. Although I had to work most of Saturday morning, I was able to join the ladies as the dined on #Morton's lunch of corned beef & cabbage, steamed veggies, sliders and dessert. we laugh and got excited to spend the day just enjoying the cities festivities.
After leaving #Morton's, we walked down Michigan Ave. and was in awe of all of the people who turned up & out for the parade. These people were not just dressed in green, but we saw all of kinds of costumes and green wear to celebrate. The best was the guy we saw dressed up as the Luck Charms leprechaun....it was spot on perfect! We walked down Michigan Ave. to make our way to the Museum of Contemporary Art (MOCA) to enjoy some of the art installations there. We spent a couple hours there and then decided to visit my niece at #uniqlo. It was my first time at there Chicago store and I wanted to see some of the merchandise and take a look at the store layout. The ladies and i continued to enjoy our walk and decided to make out way to one of our favorite place for hot chocolate and churros, #xoco. The lines are always insane but the food is down right amazing....I said AMAZING! It was a time to chat, laugh and just have some great girl time with these three amazing ladies. It was great for all of us to be together and just catch each other up on life and all of its unique twists and turns.
Once we were done with the churros, it was time to make our way home. We'd been roaming downtown Chicago for hours, talking, laughing and eating and now we were pooped! As we departed, we said our good byes and looked forward to the coming days ahead as we planned our next outing. Wow, what a great Saturday in the city...the ladies, St. Patrick Day activities and of course, a lot of green magic!
That's it for now!
