Birthday Shenanigans

I had the best birthday this year when i was surprised by my boyfriend and all my close friends in Chicago! I'm lucky to have such an amazing group of people who never fail to make me feel loved! And its never a celebration without each and every one of them. I couldn't have been happier to have them there with me. I have to give my boyfriend kudos for pulling this one over and arranging this, all the while convincing me of a whole other agenda.

The long weekend in Chicago involved a whole lot of shopping and ironically not a lot of purchasing. We stayed a few blocks from Michigan Ave. so we walked to the magnificent mile almost every day. I wanted to go to stores that weren't back at home and i wanted to treat myself to some special things. I looked and looked and tirelessly shopped with not much success but never less i had a wonderful time indulging in some delicious food!
