A and I are going to Chicago for July 4th weekend and I could not be more excited! He has never been and its my favorite city where I ALMOST moved until we met of course so I cant wait to go back and have some Chicago style fun.
I am so excited for Chicago!!
Here are some of our awesome plans…

Going to see this musical with A
Eating at Tavern on Rush, Gibsons, Bongo Room and Molly’s Cupcakes
Going on the awesome Chicago Movie Tour AGAIN
Meeting A’s Aunt, cousin and family who live near Chicago
Navy Pier
Cubs game
Watching Chicago Style Fourth of July Fireworks
Staying at my favorite Chicago Hotel
Shopping on Michigan Ave since my shopping freeze ends a few days before the trip hehe
Spending time with my Chicago friends
Have you been to Chicago? Whats your favorite thing to do there?


YESSS 🙂 So excited you’re coming to the Chi!!
Oh Neely, I love Chicago too!!!!! Have fun, it’s such a great city. While you’re near the Navy Pier, and if you have time, stop by MY FAVORITE PLACE: The Shedd Aquarium. Plus, you can’t beat the view across The Lake either! Speaking of views of the lake, a dinner cruise is another wonderful option. I had a fabulous time and the views of the city were incredible, especially at sunset. Enjoy your trip! Safe travels! Tell Chicago I said hello, I miss her! =)
Hugs,

So fun! I’m hoping to see the Book of Mormon in Dallas this summer (if tickets will ever go on sale!!)
So jealous of your trip… getting to see Meghan and Book of Mormon? SUPER jealous!
I’m very jealous! I’m dying to see the Book of Mormon
Chicago is on my must-visit list for this year – I cannot wait to see your recap to make sure I pop by some of these places 🙂
We are going in August for my birthday… I live in STL so its not too far. What hotel is your favorite, we need to book one still… Have fun!
You are going to have the best time in Chi-town! Hopefully the weather cooperates for you. I’m obsessed with Molly’s Cupcakes, they’re actually right down the street from where I live. I’d recommend checking out the list of street fests for the time you’re in town and maybe stop by one for some music… they’re my favorite part about summer in Chicago.
You should really check out some festivals too! We always have awesome fests going on. Also the Field Museum is a must see 🙂
So jealous. y’all are gonna have an amazing time!
Love Chicago! I moved there on a whim when I was young & reckless haha But I am an LA girl for life lol Anyway the taste & fireworks were my favorite experiences there! Oh and outside concerts & cubs games 🙂 Have fun girly.
