Anniversary

This past weekend was our 1-year anniversary and I surprised DJ with a trip to Chicago and Cubs tickets. I still can’t believe it’s been a year already. It was so nice to get out of town for a long weekend. We stayed with G-ma and Auntie Whetter for a couple nights and then stayed downtown on our last night so we could have dinner at the Signature Room and enjoy a few cocktails without having to worry about getting home.

We went to the Cubs/Cardinals game on Saturday and it was so much fun. We took the train downtown early so we could hang out in Wrigleyville. We ate the Cubbie Bear and began to drink ourselves silly. I think DJ finished two 16oz beers in the time it took me to get one done. He is clearly beer drinking winner. I wasn’t able to get two seats next to each other, but we were just one row apart and we got lucky because we were by a great group of people. That’s what makes the Wrigley field so much fun… the people are amazing. We played musical chairs for about 3 innings trying to avoid the large boulder that obstructed the view of the seats next to me and to try to get DJ and me next to each other. The more we drank the more fun the game became. The most exciting part of the game was that it went into extra innings and the Cubs won with a homerun in the 11th.

All in all, it was a great weekend and an excellent way to spend our 1-year anniversary.
