::[new years in chicago]::
this year jon and i celebrated new year's from the heights of lakepoint tower, with an unparalleled view of the navy pier fireworks! all hail jon for arranging that incredible setup. the pyrotechnics, of course, occurred after a pleasant trip through downtown and an enourmous meal at the cheesecake factory in the john hancock building...not a bad way to start off the year!
