Dinner Party & Super Bowl Gathering

It was a busy weekend! On Saturday night, our friends, Katie and Jason, invited us to their beautiful home for dinner. There were about 10 guests in total, and Katie made a really delicious meal. She made a few appetizers in addition to dinner, which entails salads, grilled vegetables and prime rib! Dessert was home-made cheese cake!

Katie and Jason's home is a historic building built in 1906. They pretty much completely renovated the interior, but the exterior must be reserved and unchanged, since the building is one of the national register of historic places in Chicago. Inside of their home, you can tell they have put a lot of thought to it and is definitely full of characters and originality.

Sunday was the 2010 Super Bowl, and we had a casual gathering at John and Marie's home. We had chips and dips, appetizers, pot stickers and ordered pizza. We played squares and cheered for the Saints (at least I was...haha). Jeff thought I had special luck to win sports games, so he asked me to pick all the squares. And he was right! We had the biggest win out of all couples. It was also our first time seeing Katie and Bret with their 2 babies since they moved to the suburbs a few months ago, so it was great time catching up as well.
