Time in Chicago with Tegan and Sara

On March 26th Zachary and I left Tegan at home with grandma Dee while we stayed over night in chicago. This was our very first night away from Tegan and it was very difficult to leave. We excitedly purchased tickets back in october during the pre-sales and booked our hotel in feburary so we had to follow through with our plans. I was sure to write up a nice list for grandma to follow and I walk out the door with tears flowing. As hard as it was to leave, I am glad we did. Zachary and I had an amazing time!!! We arrived at hotel indigo on deerborn parkway around 2pm. The location of this hotel was so wonderful, we were within walking distance of everything!
We went up and saw our room then bundled up and went out on the town!
It was such a blast walking down through gold coast chicago. We started our journey off by hitting up starbucks for some chai and cookies. We then went to barnes and noble to warm up for a bit and look around. I of course spent me time in the childrens book section thinking about Tegan. After we regained color to our lips we continued down deerborn until we hit chicago ave and took a nice walk to the chicago water tower.
We headed back to the indigo after looking around a bit and taking in the beauty of the old architecture that fills the city.
We had a nice dinner then caught our cab to the Eragon Ballroom. Holly Miranda and Steel Train opened for Tegan and Sara. It was an amazing concert (t&s always put on an amazing show!). After a few hours of rocking out we went back to the hotel and crashed(we aren't used to being up past 10 anymore haha.) I was up and ready to go at 6:30 the next morning. I let Zach sleep until 7 while I packed and got ready to get home to my cuppy cake! Her and grandma had a wonderful time and I am so greatful that she was there to watch Tegan for us. It helped ease my mind knowing Tegan was in her home surrounded by love and having fun. Of course that didn't make me miss her any less :( Enjoy all the pictures!!!!!
