The Wonderful Windy City
Adam and I spent most of the week working in Chicago. I grew up in Illinois and despite visiting cities like New York City and London – Chicago is still my favorite. It’s where my family and friends are – the ones closest to my heart. Oh and the Bulls (go Scottie Pippen!).
Some highlights:
- Cold, brisk walks downtown while the city is decorated for Christmas
- Eating at Xoco and drinking coffee from Intellegentsia.
- Quality time with my brother
- Holding my best friend’s second child for the first time
- Drinking too much wine
- Realizing that I can work from anywhere…and dreaming of our next trip!
It made the week fly by and it’s already Friday! I plan to catch up on work before the holidays, celebrate a friend’s birthday, bake Christmas cookies with my friends and finish up my shopping for the Christmas City Swap! Do you have any plans?
Oh and congrats to Rebecca Odell for winning a $25 giftcard to Nurtur Grandview giveaway! Thanks to all who entered!

I love that second circle photo of you in the window with the city lights behind you, it’s magic!

So fun! I’m an Illinois girl myself (now living in Tennessee) and going to Chicago always feels like coming home. And bonus, like you, my husband and I can truly work from anywhere, so going home’s not hard. Such a blessing!
