oh pretty baby.

loving this image i stumbled upon tonight while perusing one of my favorite blogs, dress design decor.


what i wouldn't do for that lovely hard wood floor, adorable side table and matching antique mirrors above that bed that is just waiting for me to crawl into. who's with me? oh, and that kitty looks an awful lot like a certain mr. jones that i get to snuggle with every night.

wind rider.

i went on a bike ride on lakeshore down to navy pier yesterday, i was so fun. and so windy. i am loving that chicago is such a bike friendly city, lexington was the total opposite. here are some pictures of my little adventure.


navy pier, the big ferris wheel is on the back side. im scared of ferris wheels. so when i come back it wont be for that.


the trekster looking over lake michigan.


pretty


i had to ride head on into the wind on the way back north to lincoln park. i could hardly pedal. (embarrassing? yes.) so we had to stop and take a break.

je suis desole.

two years ago at this time i was boarding a plane with 3 of my best friends for europe. and today im dreaming of...


$10 gelato in florence..


chatting with the queen in london..



treking to the top of the eiffel tower..


spending 10 hours in a rental car driving to paris from nice.. stopping along the way to eat gas station food and pose for pictures in front of the alps.




drinking wine on an overnight train..


carafe stealing, murano buying and getting bug bitten in venice. 


having scary adventures in interlochen, but eating enough fondue to make up for it.


and just basically having the best time ever, with the best friends in the world.


please take me back. now.
