More Chicago

We made it back to Denver, just ahead of the big storm. I have to say, we lucked out this weekend; the weather in Chicago was downright balmy (in the 30's and 40's) compared to what we expected for January.

Since we only had a couple of days - and since the weekend always, no matter where we are, must include some downtime and lots of homework/grading - we only planned a few key things. Wilson Tower (check); The Field Museum (check); Giordanos pizza (check); lots of food (CHECK); and the "Bean".

Isn't it awesome? Chicago is such an artistic city - I can't wait to come back.

A few more food pics because, let's be honest, we ate a LOT. Oh, and drank a lot, too. G and I hardly see each other during the week - especially last week since he was traveling - so it's especially nice when we get to just chill in a restaurant and spend some time catching up over drinks and a ton of food. It helps make up for all the nights of cereal dinners, endless homework/grading, and The Nonstop Weekly Chores And Chaos.

This weekend really was the best.

Ok, I'll give you all my King Sooper's coupons if you'll go to work for me today so I can stay home in my pj's and bug Loo Loo Bean.
