Weekend Recap

Another weekend has come and gone and the first month of the year is behind us. Hopefully that groundhog doesn't see his shadow on Tuesday so spring will come early! I am ready for this snow and cold to go away. At least February is a shorter month so hopefully it will go by fast. In less than two weeks we will be on our weekend getaway to Lake Geneva for Valentine's Day! I am so excited; it will be nice to have a 4 day weekend off of work. It seems like Christmas break was so long ago, so a few days off work is definitely needed.

We had a really nice weekend. Friday we just relaxed and hung out after a long week. On Saturday, I got up and worked out and then we got ready and headed down to Naperville for the day. I had read online that the Whole Foods in Naperville was new and one of the biggest in the area so we wanted to check it out. It was amazing! It is like 4 times the size of the Whole Foods we've been going to in Wheaton. I am hoping the new one that is going to be opening soon in Schaumburg is like the Naperville store so we don't have to drive so far. After grocery shopping we headed to the downtown area and went to one of my favorite boutiques, SaraBoo Creek. I made a customized Valentine's Day sign for our door. I have made Easter and Halloween signs there before. Here's the Valentine's heart I made.

Saturday night we went on a date night at our favorite sushi restaurant, Sushi Kushi Toyo. It was so good and we had a really good time. We need to not wait so long before we go again. Here's some pictures of us on our way out to dinner.

Today I got up and worked out and then we went to our favorite breakfast spot. I ran a few errands at Target and CVS, did some laundry and now we are going to spend the rest of the day enjoying what's left of the weekend. I am making a yummy Sunday dinner with a new recipe. It's called Pesto Presto Italian Flag Chicken. It looks and sounds really good. I'll let you know tomorrow if it was a hit.

I hope everyone had a great weekend; I'm already looking forward to next weekend and the Super Bowl! We are going to be having a small Super Bowl party here so I need to work on my menu this week.
