Hello All!
I hope everyone out there had an amazing Easter/Passover ... I know we did! So, a quick update on our lives in the Windy City.
Shannon and I thought we would be going away for the weekend but ended up staying in the city and immersing ourselves in one another! It was a great time and we actually got out and did a few things but it was equally paired with laying low with great food and movies, which is what we love!
To kick off the weekend, I made my mom's famous Easter Cupcakes with homemade cream cheese frosting and Shannon loved it! YEAH!! We met up with some friends and then Shannon and I found this great local pub and the food was awesome! We also went to our first Cubs game ... which they won!! Shannon couldn't believe how American it was with the singing, hot dogs and beverages ... it was right out of a movie ... we even got to sing, TAKE ME OUT TO THE BALLGAME! We walked around the city and took in the exceptional weather. Honestly, it was a pretty great Easter!
Shannon and I were a bit under the weather for the last day or so, so we cuddled up and watched movies and he got to catch up video games, which meant I caught up on calls hahaha. We make a great team. It has become pretty obvious that we can do the adventure thing or sit on the couch and either way, have a phenomenal time. To us, that is what it is all about. Just being together makes us so happy, what else can you ask for? My mom once told me that when you find the right person, you become your own nucleus or unit. I thought she was crazy but there it is again ... she was right! We also got to chat with Sue, Shannon's mom, and she did an AMAZING job painting the house!! Go Sue!!
That is it for now ...
Best Always,
Kate
