I'm back from my trip to Chicago. I flew in on Wednesday night and got back Sunday afternoon. It was a really nice 4 day weekend =) I got to see Tim's new apartment in Illinois. It's nice, I like it. Kind of neat to think I'll be living there one day. I turned 25 at a rest area while driving from the airport to Tim's place. Then the next morning, we got up and ready to go to his work. So I spent the actual birthday at his work. Parrrrrtayyy huh? hah Then car problems at night. =P No need to explain more. heh We went to a nice restaurant for a small and late dinner and walked around town afterward. Tim got me a really pretty (and tasty) birthday cake too. =) It was a lavender and cream colored cake. hehe
Friday, we headed out for Chicago. More car problems. No need to explain more on this time too. hah We got to bond while waiting for a tow truck, haha. We spent some time with his brothers, sis-in-law, niece, & nephew. =) It was really nice to just chill after a hectic (and rainy!) day. Tim's niece and nephew are so precious. =)
Friday night, Tim & I hung out with Ria, Daisy, & Mike. Great people =) We had a great time (as always). And it definitely felt like a birthday weekend with them. We partied at their place and had yummy sushi and sangrias. They treated us for dinner at a restaurant called Mirai. It was a yummy sushi restaurant. They also surprised me with cute Hershey's cupcakes with sparkler candles! I loved it. It made me so smiley. =) I was really surprised and touched. The girls & Mike got me a Garmin GPS for my birthday. I was very surprised at that. It makes me so happy and so grateful to have such amazing friends. Seriously. =) I'm very very lucky to have incredible people in my life. I love them all.
Saturday, Tim & I actually went around town and talked to a priest at a really nice Greek Orthodox church. The priest was really nice, funny, and helpful. We still need to set a date for the wedding. !!! =) We had a meeting with a photography consultant. And we decided to choose them for our pictures. hehe We got one thing settled. heh Well, technically two. I bought my wedding dress before leaving for Chicago! =)
All in all, it was a really nice trip. And it's harder & harder to say bye to Timmy at the airport... =P
