stormkeeper_lovedorisThe last 3 days were great! There's really not that much to post about. It was fun to host Pam and Sean; they are great guests. We did basically exactly what we laid out in the last post. (We also sat out and enjoyed our new lawn furniture and drank!)
The anniversary dinner on Saturday was so nice! I think we ended up with 21 of our closest friends and family. It all went so smooth and easy. The food and the room were great. (We had it inside an Italian restaurant). People seemed to have a lot of fun. We had a ton of leftovers, some of which we brought to Doris's dad and some of which Pam, Sean, Doris and I ate the next day!
The boat tour was a lot of fun too. I've actually done it 2 times before but was not at all bored. The weather was good. Pam, Sean, and Eric liked it a lot. (Doris had to go to her mom's to visit with her sister and celebrate her mom's b-day). When we went to Wrigley Field, there was an art show. Someone was selling a painting that had the Chicago Diner in it, and I mentioned to Pam and Sean the good times I had there especially how it was one of the first times I saw Justin outside of a drag show. When my back was turned, they bought me a small print of it! After the boat tour we enjoyed the view at the John Hancock building and a drink at the Signature Lounge.
So that was basically it; I just dropped them off at the airport. I think the rest of today will be just relaxing, and doing errands like bank, groceries, cooking, I also need to pick up some items from Trends. And maybe plan something fun for tomorrow!
