Ashley's Weekend in Chicago

Hi loves! I hope everyone is having a wonderful week so far! Ashley here today, bringing you lots of pictures from my past weekend in Chicago! First, I want to take a moment and send love and prayers to my dear friend, Caroline. She just lost a sweet friend, Simon, so please keep her in your thoughts. 

Andrew and I were lucky enough to go visit and stay with some friends in Chicago for a long weekend. Andrew traveled to Chicago when he was 14, but I had never been so I was beyond excited to visit a new place. Our friends were gracious enough to host us and show us around their lovely city, but we ventured out on our own as well. Enjoy all of the pictures!

{Evan took us to his favorite coffee place before we ventured out. He sadly had to work that day, so Andrew and I were on our own.}

{Oh, let me just tell you about the current uproar regarding the Trump Tower...not good!}

{Navy Pier}



{Me enjoying my first Chicago dog....delish}

{Enjoying our lunch in Millennium Park}


{Of course, we had to visit the Bean!}

{So happy we were able to meet up with a Clemson friend, Mamo!}

{It might not be deep dish, but this pizza from Spacca Napoli was seriously the best pizza I've ever had! The cheese was flown in from Italy that day! Talk about fresh}

{The beautiful Chicago skyline behind us, while visiting Lake Michigan}

{My all-star, traveling baseball husband really enjoyed visiting Wrigleyville!}

{Evan and Terran, thank you so much for your hospitality and a fabulous weekend in Chicago! We will definitely be back, so get ready!}


Alright guys, if you stuck through all of the pictures, you are a trooper! I hope y'all have a great day! 
xoxo, 
Ashley
