1YEAR!! CAN YOU BELIEVE IT?



Hey Gang,
This past weekend was the first of many anniversaries for me and Danielle. We spent our time in the Windy City and stayed at the Palmer House Hilton. What a fancy hotel. I felt like we were staying inside the Fox Theater. We arrived in the rain and decided to hit up the Shedd Aquarium. W-O-W.
We then "scalped" some Cubs tickets via Craigslist and spent Saturday in The Friendly Confines of Wrigley FIeld. A bit chilly, but what a park! We also had a wonderful anniversary dinner (thanks to Mom and Dad) at the Signature Room on the 95th floor of the Hancock Building. 360degrees of floor to ceiling windows and you could see for miles. We watched the sun set, how romantic, and had some kick ass strawberry shortcake for dessert (see above pic).
And would you believe that our wedding cake tasted great? I know it doesnt sound right. Think about it. A cake that is 1yr old tasting "fresh". But its true. Danielle wrapped it like a maniac in plastic wrap the day after our wedding and held prisoner in our freezer for 363 days. Amazing what you can find on the Internet.
Anyway, hope all is well in all parts of this wonderful country (thank a Vet). TJ, hope your job is working out for ya. Broadway, hope no dudes have tried to violate you and that your new move went smoothly. Mom and Dad, see you two soon.
Love you all.
Greg and Danielle

Thanks for sharing your weekend with all of us - sounds like you had a great time. And we agree that this is just the first of many wonderful anniversaries for you and Danielle. Can't believe that a whole year has gone by! We remember being at Trinity Lutheran Church, seeing the look on your face when you saw Danielle coming down the aisle. It was wonderful to see you both so happy! Isn't it amazing how love keeps growing? We are so proud of the life you two are building together, including the new addition to our family. We love you more than we can ever say - Mom and Dad
