Navy Pier
For the first day in Chicago we thought this was the Sears Tower.
It's not.
It's the Hancock Tower.

Field Trip: Chicago
A few weekends ago, the mister and I spent a few days in Chicago before heading out to Moline for the wedding of a dear friend. I've had a long love affair with the windy city. I have never lived there but have several friends from my undergrad days at Indiana that live in the city, and also lived just an hour away in Milwaukee for a few years. I love the vibe of an older city and would totally live there if it weren't for the small problem of freezing weather. The hubby had never been, so I was super excited to show him around. We spent two days walking around Navy Pier, going to a Cubs game, eating deep dish pizza, and having drinks on the 95th floor of the Hancock Tower. It was a bit chilly for Memorial Day, but we had a great time.
