Chicago

So instead of taking a real honeymoon after the wedding, we decided to take a little mini-moon where we could just sleep and eat excessively... then we'll take a real honeymoon in the spring. I think this decision was also partially based on the fact that we didn't want to leave Butters at the puppy hotel for two weeks while we're gone. So after being in CA for a week, we flew back to Nashville, picked up the dog and drove to one of my favorite cities... Chicago. Of course this would be the weekend a cold front floated through but we did get one sunny day out of it. The rest was spent sleeping, ordering room service and being lazy pieces aka bliss :).

The happy driver at the start of the 7 hour drive...


I made a nice bed in the backseat for Butters and this is where I find him...


...much better.



Oddly looks very comfortable, doesn't it?


Hello Chi-town!



Living it up W - style...


One of many walks across the street, along Lake Michigan. Butters was on stimulus-overload.


So what are the hazzards of staying at a pet friendly hotel that is also a nightspot? Late night drinks with your dog...
*no dog was harmed in the making of this mini-moon



A little greasy breakfast for the morning after :)



And then a little inappropriate loving from dad.


Butters having a field day in Millennium Park... literally.



Some sight-seeing before the park police told me pets aren't allowed in the park. All that green tempting the Butters...



So on the way home, we saw this gem. What compels a person to hitch fake balls to their truck?
