Weekend Update

Oh weekend, how short thou art.

I'll start my weekend update with a picture from Thursday night. Yes, I worked Friday, but whatever. This image from the Nats/Cubs game at Wrigley Field is worthy of the blog.


How crazy was that fog?!? It was really cool, except when the Nats couldn't see through it and made some errors. Grr.

Friday was Friday at work. Womp womp. 

But then I went back to Wrigleyville for a drink with Andrew (he went to the Nats/Cubs day game) followed by Wine Club and dancing with the Kinect game. 
So. Much. Fun.

Saturday was Andrew's Birthday!
To celebrate we went to both Nats/Cubs games.
Yep, I went to 3 of the 4 games in the series and Andrew went to all four! We love our Nats!

Day game view:

Night game view from the roof deck! 

The roof deck seats were birthday gifts from Andrew's parents for both of our birthdays! It was amazing: all you can eat and drink!!! It was especially fun during the rain delay. We made friends while hiding from the rain. So fun!

Yesterday wasn't as fun, unfortunately.
These silly weather changes have wreaked havoc on my migraines and I literally could barely move until 7 pm. Ugh. All of you may love the coming of summer but I personally hate it! So much pain!

I finally felt better around 7, just enough time to bake Andrew some Birthday cookies, test out our brand spanking new KitchenAid Mixer (wedding gift!) and make a total mess!

Dirty hair, don't care.

A little flour never hurt anyone, though!

How was your weekend?

Linking up with these fine ladies today:

Wee Bit from My Weekend

This weekend I had a great time relaxing in Chicago. And by relaxing I mean constantly refreshing my Facebook feed to see pictures from the two weddings I missed. Boo finances. I missed some good times with good friends in gorgeous gowns. Sad.Face.

However, I managed to squeeze in some fun (on the cheap!) this weekend. Here are a few pictures! 

Our friend was in town from DC, and we stopped to pose at the Adler Planetarium for city-scaped shots.



Sunday I was absolutely THRILLED to meet {av} from Long Distance Loving and 20 other Chicago Bloggers for Blogger Blitz Chicago!! We graced the roof deck of Market for some mid-day cocktails and chatting. 

How cute is {av} for providing all of this swag?!?!


Our view from the roof:


Here's the gang! It was really exciting to put names to faces and make connections with these talented ladies. I fully intend to add their blogs to my Google Reader. I hope we all meet again!

Me and {av}! Both of us are actually sporting our picks from the Tangerine Tango Friday's Fancies theme! 


The rest of the afternoon I joined Andrew for a shaded view of the Cubs game. Seriously, I wouldn't have lasted if we were in the sun!


I love this pic of Wrigley from Andrew's shades!


The white flag makes me happy! Cubs Win!


I hope all of your weeks are off to a good start...but really...is it Friday yet?!?!
