Friday night turned into a late night Michael Jackson dance party.
Saturday morning started with some much-needed breakfast and an awesome Bloody Mary bar.
Then I spent some time downtown in Millennium Park with my parents. We had lunch at Terzo Piano, the newly acclaimed restaurant at the Art Institute. It was absolutely fantastic. I had the Nichols' farm heirloom tomato salad and a Bellini.
We walked off the delicious lunch through the Lurie Garden, a gorgeous expanse of prairie and wildflowers.
Then it was on to watch the football games with my friends. Unfortunately Notre Dame gave me the same gift it has nearly every year- another loss to Michigan.
After that game I needed a glass of wine while getting dolled up.
Then it was dinner for 16 in a private room at Adobo Grill. Many, many margaritas, tequila shots, and delicious Mexican food made for a ridiculously fun evening.
Sunday came too quickly, and the day was spent watching football and eating Chicago pizza (for the second time that weekend).
What a fantastic birthday and even more fabulous friends! Now it's time to recover with my sweet boyfriend, who got me a collection of classic old movies for my birthday. Life is good.
