Alex and I flew back to Illinois one last time this past weekend to celebrate the nuptials of my wonderful college friend and roommate, Julie, and her now husband, Ryan.

Alex and I just returned from a ten day jaunt around the Midwest. We bounced around from place to place in Illinois, Wisconsin and Minnesota and ultimately ended up staying in six cities across the three states.

Cam + Adam’s Wedding
Alex and I were recently in Minnesota attending my good friend from high school, Cammy, and her now husband’s wedding. Their wedding took place in White Bear Lake on July 12th.

A Weekend in Minnesota
On our way back from our recent trip to Europe, Alex and I made a pit stop in Minnesota to spend some time with my family, celebrate my dad’s big birthday and to attend my good friend’s wedding. As we always do when we go back to our respective hometowns, we had a jam-packed schedule. …
