Anniversary Surprise

My husband is amazing!

Yesterday was our 2 year Anniversary and he said that we were 'going out to dinner downtown and you need to get dressed up!' I was so excited all day- I had no idea where we were going but I couldn't wait. He said to be ready to go around 4. I was dressed and ready(well almost) when he got home. I had just finishing getting ready when he said he needed me to come 'look at something'. He had beautiful flowers and a present for me on the kitchen counter. I opened the box and to my surprise and excitement there was a beautiful blue dress in the box!!! Not just any blue dress but the exact blue dress from Banana Republic that I had been eying for quite sometime now. I could not believe it!! He is wonderful.
He said he was sorry that I had to change but didn't think I would mind..that was for sure! I put on my new blue dress, finished getting ready and we were off to the city.

I still had no idea where we were going but I was to excited to care. We were together and I was loving my new dress. We parked next to Water Tower Place and he said we had some time to kill so we walked in and out of stores for a while until around 6 when he said we needed to go across the street to the John Hancock Building. We got into the elevator and headed to the 95th floor...yes I did type that correct the 95th floor. He had made reservation at The Signature Room Restaurant on the 95th floor of the John Hancock Building!!!!!!!!!!

It is a beautiful restaurant overlooking the city and Lake Michigan. Talk about breath-taking. We enjoyed a wonderful dinner all while sitting 95 floors up! Nathan had Snapper and I had Eggplant Lasagna for dinner each with a glass of wine and we shared an amazing fruit cobbler for dessert.

It was an absolute perfect evening.
