Black Friday in Chicago and a birthday cake

Steve and I made a little day trip to Chicago the day after Thanksgiving to see the Art Institute of Chicago. We got there before it opened so we hung out in Millennium Park for a while. Sorry my pictures aren't in order, I'll never be able to do this right. Being home was a lot of fun!

This was the cake we had for Steve's birthday. It was my idea (since Steve turned 25) but I did not decorate it, my sister in law Rachel did. I think it turned out great.
My favorite painting at the Art Institute
Our house in case anyone was wondering how is was holding up

Famous Sunday in the park (not the actual title) painting, it was HUGE!



They had all these miniature rooms that were so cool, probably my favorite thing there. They were so tiny and behind glass (if you look you can see our reflections) :)
The granddaddy of all paperweights. The paperweight display was my second favorite
