Santa is now back at @OakbrookCenter and I think better than ever. Families can visit and take pictures with Santa in his fully decorated holiday airstream. You can reserve a time slot online and each package comes with a festive ornament. After our visit, we did some early holiday shopping and had lunch!

Make sure to check it out from now until December 24th before Santa heads back home! #OakbrookCenter #holiday #ad

Keep calm & make a self-care plan this holiday season ✔️🧖‍♀️

@thenowmassage Lakeview recently invited me in to try their services at their newish opened spot & it was SO relaxing. I got the 50 min massage & it was SO good. Just what we all need going into this stressful season.

They have 5 locations now in the city! The Lakeview location gave me a code for you all! Use code NOWLV10 for your massage services at the Lakeview location!!! 🧖‍♀️ #chicagomassage #chicagospa #chicagoland #lakeviewchicago #lakeview

Today was a good day filled with art, food & shopping around Pilsen. ☀️🛍️🖼️

☕️ Horchata @micorazoncafe.pilsen (granddaughter of Panaderia Nuevo León opened her own spot next door- so you can grab concha’s & bring them in!)

🖼️ @explorenmma has their Dia de Los exhibit until December 12th- dedicated to those lives lost to gun violence & Covid. The Ulvade display was created by CPS students & so emotional 🥲

They also have a holiday market going on until tomorrow!

Trees from around the World is Back @msichicago & it’s one of my favorite exhibits of the season 🎄 Great outing while kids are home on break ❤️🥰 #msichicago #chicagomuseum #do312 #choosechicago #chicagoparent

We had the best time at Winterland at @gallagherwaychi & will definitely be going back a few times this season! Tickets are $5 and attractions ticketed separately! I recommend booking them online & in advance ❄️⛸ #gallagherwaychi #chicagogram #choosechicago #chicagomom #chicagoparent

#CapitalOnePartner It’s a busy season for us all

#CapitalOnePartner It’s a busy season for us all, but stop by a @capitalonecafe this holiday season to recharge, relax, grab a coffee and just find some space for yourself! You don’t need to be a cardholder to take advantage of some of their tools & resources, free Wi-Fi and the overall café space this busy season! #CapitalOneCafe

The Winterland at Gallagher Way is officially open

The Winterland at Gallagher Way is officially open today @gallagherwaychi!! ❄️⛸ so is @thechristkindlmarket! The market is free to enter, but the Winter Wonderland inside Wrigley Field is $5 and the attractions are ticketed separately.

There’s ice skating, bumper cars, rides and more! You can purchase online in advance or at the door, but I’d purchase early so it doesn’t sell out!

I think we will be back as many times as they allow us in 🎄🥰⛸ #chicagobucketlist #christkindlmarkt #wrigleyfield #wrigleyville #christkindlmarketchicago

🎄A Holiday Day Downtown this Weekend 🎄

If you are heading to the tree lighting, the Magnificent Mile parade, ice skating or just getting started on your holiday shopping, stop by the @chiarchitecture Center right off Michigan Avenue!

They invited me in to check out their holiday gifts & new City in a Snow Globe exhibit they have right now. If you are out and about and need a place to lounge or warm up, stop by the @chiarchitecture Center and learn a little more of about Chicago’s history and its architecture.

Ticket sales help fund partnerships with schools and youth-serving organizations, supporting approximately 30,000 K-12 students in STEM fields annually!

And stop by their gift shop (no tickets needed) for some cute gift options for at home, for kids and any Chicago architecture fans on your list this year!

It now feels like winter, and that means it’s time to start thinking about winter plans. If you’re planning to stay inside, you are missing out! Head outdoors to try skiing or snowboarding at @wilmotmtn! Or maybe you have a skier or rider on your gift list this year. @epicpass has an incredible deal on their Epic Day Pass right now until prices go up November 20th. Check out the new 22-resort access option to ski/ride for as low as $40 a day. Epic Day Pass holders receive 20% off on-mountain food and beverage, lessons, equipment rentals and more!

Manny and I are heading to the slopes in January! Check out the Epic Day Pass at the link in my bio before prices go up! #AD #EpicDayPass #EpicForEveryone

Ever just wake up and know something is wrong? For me, I get chronic sinus infections! Especially around this time when the seasons are changing! Having @midwestexpressclinic available without waiting hours or days to see a doctor has helped me a ton! I have been using them for years, the Midwest Express Clinic staff is always so helpful and knowledgable.

They have 7 locations in the Chicagoland area and offer a a wide range of services from treating allergies, sinuses, ear infections, flu shots, flu treatment and more! No appointments necessary for most services. Check out their website for more information! #AD #MidwestExpressClinic #ChicagoMom #chicagolandarea

It may be cold outside today, but it’s warm whenever we’re curling! 🥌 @stonesthrowcurling

This is in the rooftop of the @theemilyhotel in the West Loop. For one hour, you can curl with 2-4 people, includes access to heated yurt with a bartender and 1 drink in your ticket. It’s a great winter activity or to get your night started before dinner!

Use code CHIGOODLIFE20 for groups of 2 or 4! Make reservations on Tock! #chicagobucketlist #westloop #westloopchicago #choosechicago

Calling all Harry Potter fans! The Harry Potter Ma

Calling all Harry Potter fans! The Harry Potter Magic at Play experience opens November 11th. @harrypottermagicatplay. I left wanting to reread the series and watch all the movies!!

Few things to takeaway:

-It’s a huge exhibit located in Water Tower place
-Every guest receives a free photo with a background
-It’ll take around 90-2 hours to get through
-Very interactive! My favorite was the Lego Mirror of Erised!
-Great for ages 5 and up
-ADA compliant
-The end is the Forbidden Forest with a playhouse and more for the smaller children to do
-A HUGE merch collection, in fact it’s the largest in the nation.
-Makes a great gift idea!

It’s here till May and tickets start at 37 dollars!
