Chicago for the weekend

This week was quite a week! We had my cousin Jill's wedding in Chicago and it just so happened that I also had to be here for work earlier in the week and so did my brother and hubby! So we flew in on Tuesday and then the rest of my family arrived on Thursday. I ended up taking Thursday and Friday off and got to spend time with my mom and relatives, which was really nice! Here's a recap of the week in pictures :)
The River
 My mom and her three childhood friends at lunch! My mom grew up just outside of Chicago and moved the summer she was going into senior year, but has kept in touch with her friends from elementary school.
 On Thursday evening, we had a family dinner for everyone who was in town. This is a picture of Josh and me with our soon-to-be 90 year old great aunt, Estelle!
Danny and Estelle
Josh and our newest addition to the family, Stella, who is my cousin Danny's daughter.
Following dinner, we ventured to Studio Paris as they just launched Owen's! We brought Estelle and my mom and had the best time!
Mule Mix for everyone!!!!
On Friday, we hung out and then went for deep dish pizza before the welcome drinks for the wedding. This pizza was really delicious!

Most of the women in my family, except for Jayme and Jill
I had to get an up-close picture of Tyler's pocket square...For Christmas, I had custom mule pocket squares made for him and Josh as they both love pocket squares. It came out pretty great and was a nice conversation starter :)
All of the flower arrangements and decor were so beautiful.
Aunt Julie and Katie

Trying on Josh's glasses.....I look like my dad here!
