Week 49: Chicago for 4 Years of Marriage

This past week we celebrated four years of marriage. This man of mine has been such a beautiful thing for me. Each year we grow deeper as one but this past year we have had to focus harder on "us" more than any other year. This is so obvious but was so evident for me as I looked back on the year. We focused more on being connected than just besties with each other. We still have "it" though and that will never get old. Ever.

To celebrate, we took the day off work to go to lunch and to... KAYAK. Caleb surprised me with a trip to a lake to have hot cocoa and paddle our way around the lake. It was so fun to do something so different than what we normally do and to be LITERALLY just us talking and laughing.

We left straight after work on Friday and headed down to Chicago. Nathan and Kelly took Rollie for us and we had an overnight of reminiscing the "good days of Chicago". We walked a total of 6 miles for the day, spent a lot of time in Wrigleyville celebrating the World Series with the rest, ate deep-dish pizza, drank local brews, and had bfast at Baker & Nosh. All things awesome and "us".

We also were able to celebrate Halloween together as a family of three. It was so fun but oh so last minute. Ha Ha.
