January 12, 2017You’ve definitely had an incredible year 😀 I’ve always wanted to sky dive and I hope to be able to do it at some point. Chicago Skydeck looks amazing, although I’m pretty sure my stomach wouldn’t be too happy about it 😛

January 11, 2017You’ve had quite an eventful 2016, haven’t you? Hear Florida’s a great place for sun – was scheduled to attend an event there last November, but it fell through last minute. Hope to make it some day for sure.
