Some people say this is when the symptoms can really start appearing, especially the morning sickness. Not looking forward to that, but at least it will be a sign to help make this all feel real. I still feel great! In fact, my cramping has even gone away, so I actually have less symptoms now than I did when we first found out I was pregnant.
We just enjoyed a wonderful weekend in downtown Chicago, where I was Matron of Honor in my friend Jackie's wedding. We arrived in Chicago on Thursday and found that our room had the most amazing view I have ever seen!
That evening we ate dinner at Weber Grill with Jackie's family.
Friday we enjoyed walking though Millenium Park and watching the figure skaters mark the opening of their ice skating rink in Millenium Park. It was a beautiful sunny day in the 50's! A good friend (and the bride's cousin), Rachel Dockendorf joined us!
The evening continued with the rehearsal at St. Alphonsus Church and then the rehearsal dinner was at Fiorentino's restaurant......yummy!
Saturday was the day of the wedding, which turned out PERFECT and was so much fun! We had beautiful weather for the wedding. The reception was located at the Holiday Inn Mart Plaza and the ballroom had a beautiful view of downtown Chicago and the Chicago River. The evening started with hor d'oeuvres, then continued with a meal of filet mignon and chicken, which was AMAZING! They also had a chocolate fountain fondue and coffee bar and then a late night snack of cheeseburgers, fries and chocolate malts. Needless to say that nobody left hungry! Congrats Jackie and Mike Barrett!
This week is Thanksgiving week, for which we have so much to be thankful for this year!
Happy Thanksgiving!
