Chicago

Chicago is one of my favorite places in the country, and possibly the world. Driving into the city always puts a huge smile on my face. The weekend before Thanksgiving my sister and I met our two cousins, Rima and Kira, in the city for a reunion weekend. The four of us sort of grew up together and I realized a few months ago that we hadn’t all been together in over three years. The weekend was filled with a lot of shopping (as usual), a trip to Second City, and a couple birthday celebrations for Katie. Katie and I got to spend time with all of our extended family who live in and around the city and I saw three of my college friends who I don’t get to see nearly enough. The trip was wonderful and I wish I lived closer so I could visit more often. Here are a few photos from the weekend.
