The Windy City

Hello Blog Followers!

My first blog! Yay! and an exciting one at that. :D I'm new to this and still don't have my site the way I would like but I'm working on it and in the mean time, I'll keep you posted on the current events of our newly wed life.

Preston and I were in Chicago this week! Preston was there on a business trip and we decided that it would be good if I went along as well. Okay... so I'm the one who thought it would be good if I went along (you know, to broaden my cultural experience) but Preston had no complaints ;). So we left a day early and had fun wondering around Chicago. We visited Navy Pier on our first day and the following day, while Preston was at work, I got my shopping in. I found a new pair of pants that I love! Preston also took me out for a nice stake dinner to Ruth's Chris. It was simply divine! Our last night in town, he took me to see the business section of the city where I must say the architecture is mind blowing. There's no better way to describe it. The buildings are jaw dropping, beautiful!

I think one of my most favorite parts of the trip were all the black guys that shouted out to Preston to "keep that ring on your finger!", "she's a keeper!". I was flattered :)

The experience was a lot of fun and I look forward to our next visit.

Thank you, Preston, for being so wonderful! I'm the lucky one :D
