Rooftop at Epic

We went to dinner at Roka Akor and then headed over to the rooftop of Epic.  I love this time of year when you can hangout outside and go to rooftops.  Another fun night with Mark & Sabrina.



Top of the Hancock

We met Mark & Sabrina on the 96th floor of the Hancock building.  They are visiting from MI and wanted to check out the view.  The view is amazing especially at sunset and then when you can see all the pretty lights at night.  We had one drink and then headed over to Roka Akor for dinner.

RPM

Craig was just asked to be on the board of Big Shoulders, which is a charity that pays for inner city kids to attend private catholic schools.  They have sent 24,000 kids through school in 25 years.  They celebrated their 25th anniversary with a Gala at The Hilton.  Craig did their real estate deal and donated his fee to the charity and also got all the vendors to donate their services (furniture, etc) so Craig's company was recognized by the charity and we were able to invite 8 people to sit with us at our table. We had a great time with Craig and Sabrina, Mark and Sabrina, Andrew and Audi, Rick and Chris.  Afterwards we went to RPM with Mark and Sabrina (friends from MI).

Cubs Game

Craig's friend gave us free tickets to the Cubs game and he has amazing seats.  We were about 16 rows up just to the right of home plate.  The Cubs were playing the White Sox so it was a very rowdy game. There were a lot of White Sox fans.  Unfortunately we lost, but we still had a great time!

Mother's Day Dinner at Gilt Bar

This morning I made crepes for Mother's Day.  My Mom and I lounged around and hung out all day.  For dinner we went to Gilt Bar and had some amazing food.  Chicken, Gnocchi,  bolognese pasta and caramelized brussel sprouts.  Craig's friend Mac also met us for dinner since his family is back in CT.  Hope everyone had a great Mother's Day!



Happy Mother's Day to the Best Mom

Happy Mother's Day to the Best Mom in the world!  You are the most caring and sweetest person I know.  Thanks for being such a great mother and friend all these years.  We have been through so much together and I am grateful I get to call you Mom.  I love you so much!

Redhead Piano Bar

We have an amazing piano bar in Chicago called Redhead Piano Bar.  I requested You are So Beautiful by Joe Cocker (song my Dad and I danced to at my wedding) and of course I cried my eyes out.  

They had fun crazy glasses so we had to take some pictures.
