Chi City Meetup

So round about the New Year, Miss Meatball and I not only had the pleasure of meeting each other in "real life," but the supreme pleasure of meeting Chicago Bees L and C, as well as Miss Meatball's MOH MaPo! Margaritas, queso, and delicioso Mexican food was the order of the day! We met up at Uncle Julio's Hacienda in Chicago's Lincoln Park neighborhood - since Mr. Meatball used to work there, Miss Meatball had the inside scoop! We had a great time getting to know each other, and I can't wait for our next Chi-town meetup! Here are a few pics from the day...

Rockin' Chicago Bees C and L... C is planning her upcoming Vegas wedding in but a few months. She brought her invites, which were so cool, and we all agreed that we want to crash her wedding. C'mon, a full-on Vegas wedding, who could turn that down?!? L was for sure the resident venue expert. She shared her venue search, and how it came down to two, both had some combination of chandeliers, vintage bars, etc. - I totally think she should be a venue consultant in her spare time, because she knew about amazing venues that I totally missed in my own venue search!

Miss Meatball and her Best bud MaPo. They had been taking care of a few wedding errands and shared their adventures with all. I can totally tell that "Dildo Weekend" was a ton of fun!

Safe to say that we have healthy appetites!! Hey, the diets don't have to get back on track til January 2nd - everyone knows THAT!

Miss Meatball and Miss Snap, representing the redheads! Do not be fooled by the seemingly harmless streets behind us. Right now, Chicago is covered in lethal snowbanks!

Adios, amigos!
