Happy Quarter Centry BJ!


BJ and his birthday "cake." It's a Twinkie person!

So very Bright!


We're at Millinium park trying to take our picture with the unique architecture in the background. We're trying to smile but the sun is just too bright.

Big Bean!


This is the bean at Millinium Park. Aside from becoming engaged and seeing Wicked, this was my favorite part of Chicago!

Bean View


Look at the buildings in the beans reflection. Magnificent!

Bean Leaning.


Just hanging out.

Prop me up beside the bean.



Holding up the bean. What can I say. It was peer pressure. Everyone was doing it. It looked fun.

Reflections




Taking our picture through the reflextion of the bean.

Hot Dog!



Hot Dog! Afterlooking everywhere we finally found a hot dog stand by the Field Museum. We thought they would be everywhere. The "chicago style hot dog" is famous right? Well we thought so but I guess not so much.

Going Downtown!



Postcard ready. Here is a pic of two apartment building in down town chicago. The bottom half is one huge parking garage, the upper layers is the apartments.

US



Aren't we cute. Or maybe funny looking at least?

Wicked











BJ and I at "Wicked." After dinner and a proposal we topped off the night with a great show.

Oz Park











Here we are at Oz Park posing with Dorthy, the scarecrow, the Lion and Tin man. "We're off to see the wizard!"

Giorginos Pizzaria





Here we are at Giorginos Pizzaria trying our first Chicago stuffed crust style pizza. BJ loved it and let's just say I still prefer Pizza Hut.

Sears Tower



Here we are at the Sears Tower (130 stories high) standing in front of a picture of the Sears Tower. To bad the guy taking our picture didn't get the whole tower. Oh Well.

Lake Michigan

Here we are standing by the beautiful lake michigan. Isn't the skyline great.

Engaged!


Here's BJ and I shortly after he proposed trying to take our own picture.
