Now that summer is officially over, I wanted to recap all of my favorite moments of the past few months. Summers in Chicago are short so you have to take advantage of the nice weather while you can. Looking back, I don’t think I did too bad of a job this year. Did you get a chance to do everything you wanted to this summer?
1.Attended a rooftop pool party at my apartment
2.Went to Windy City Smoke-Out Country Festival (might be my favorite event in the summer)
3.Celebrated my 25th Birthday (since when am I a quarter century old??).. I also asked for Banana Bread instead of a cake… totally normal right?
4.Threw a Bridal Shower for my best friend Chrissy
5.Floated around in a donut on multiple weekends
6.Attended a rooftop cooking class
8.Threw my best friend Chrissy’s Bachelorette Party in Chicago (see my bachelorette post for tips on planning your own)
9.Threw a surprise 60th Birthday party for my parents
10.Went to the farmers market almost every Saturday (and stopped at the Doughnut Vault truck obviously)
11.Pretended I live at Restoration Hardware
12.Went on the Chicago Architecture Boat Tour
13.Watched the Chicago Air and Water Show
14.Enjoyed drinks at City Winery on the River Walk
15. Watched Yonce Slay at Solider Field
Xoxo,

I live vicariously through you.
Another great read.
