Chicago for Memorial weekend day 1

For Memorial weekend we took a little road trip to one of my favorite cities 

Chicago

I of course took a million pictures so the trip will have to be divided into a few different posts!! The first day we got there we spent the day walking on the Navy Pier, riding the rides on the pier, and then checking out Millennium Park.. Aka where the awesome giant orb is... 

This is us standing in line to get on the Ferris Wheel...

Someone was excited!! 

Ok as much as I am not afraid of heights, I am afraid when my kids are up high.. Luke fought Alex the whole time being up there, he wanted to look over the edge and I was having anxiety attacks the whole time.... but what a beautiful view!! 

Noah's first ride alone!! He was laughing and squealing the whole time!! It was soooo cute!! 

Noah was the one in the middle! 

The Hotel room with an awesome view of the navy pier!

Millenium Park 

Where's Waldo? Or Lacy..

This Orb is just so much fun, we spent so much time wandering around it!!

Park City, Utah

While in Utah Alex and I were in some serious need of a mini Vacay (kidless). My Sister lives in Salt Lake City and offered to babysit the boys while we had a mini getaway to the Montage 5 star resort. One of my sweet friends that I worked with at the Bellagio, is now the manager and the Salon/Spa there and it was offseason so we got a great deal and I am pretty sure we were the only guests there... After working in 2 incredible hotels in my day I know great service when I see it and I am pretty sure I haven't been to a more swanky place!! 

We were there a mere 18 hours, but I enjoyed every minute!! 

{Laced Hair Extensions} are back in.. You know I never last very long without them...

They had a super fun (HUGE) game room, we were the only ones in it!! We spend a good few hours in there, had dinner, and acted like little kids... I won a few games

ok only one game.. It was my first time "shuffle"boarding... 

The room

On the drive through the canyon to Salt Lake.. I miss mountains they make me feel like home!

S'mores, ice cream sunday, home made marshmallows, need I say more?

Mini bowling alley.. 

On the way out, the valet gave us these sweet hats.. of course I wore mine..

My favorite thing about staying in a nice hotel is room service for breakfast.. we always order it the night before so when we wake up its already waiting for us!! 

I had such a fun time with this handsome love of my life!! He deserved a fun getaway after working so hard! Only two Semesters of LAW school left and I couldn't be happier! 

Chicago Part 2

Like I said Chicago was only a 24 hour trip. It really was awesome, but even more awesome was that I got to see my girlfriends... During the day we were total tourists... Rode to the top of the John Hancock Building on the worlds fastest elevator, that pretty much made the whole trip!
We did a little shopping on Michigan Ave and ate some deep dish delish pizza!

The two cuties on the far left and far right rode the train in from their town in Southern Illinois, On the left is Courtney Kristen with a K's little sis and her roomie! So fun that they were able to come up too!

Window washing

a little deep dish love 

Don't worry there is still one more post left of our night on the town!!

and come back tomorrow I am doing a Kerastase hair product giveaway!
