i love chicago ; part one

Chicago! ♥

As you know if you're a regular "life of a cupcake" reader, on labour day weekend Pete and I and our friends Chantal & Steve headed on a road trip to Chicago! It's been ages since I've been on a road trip, and one drunken night 6 months ago lead us in to planning this awesome trip. We headed out bright and early with a car packed with snacks, games, music and FUN!

I absolutely loved Chicago, thought it was cute as can be. It reminds me of Toronto in some ways which of course is a huge plus! 

Our whole weekend was filled with so many laughs and amazing times. I am doing three blog posts with my favourite photo's from the trip!
