And August Ends…

It is amazing to me each year how fast the summer goes by, but this one especially. We ended our month long trip with a night in New England and a stop at our favorite beach. Next year we decided we will stay a few nights at the end so we can have more time... Continue Reading →

Happy Birthday Sweet Girl

I truly believe that each day we are alive changes our life somehow. Some days are big changes and other days, little changes. 14 years ago this morning our sweet Brianna Lynne was born and later that evening we said Goodbye.

We love Chicago!

I have to admit that I loved Chicago before I ever step foot in this city. There is something about it, from the time I was a kid that intrigued me. I have been excited to come here for a long time. So much so, that I was almost worried that it would not live... Continue Reading →

This past weekend we celebrated Ella's 11th Birthday a week early! She has been counting down to this, as she just loves her birthday and celebrating with friends. She wanted to start her party here at the house and then after cupcakes and presents we would head to the theatre to see Lego Batman! A... Continue Reading →

Family Day Weekend

It has been about 7 weeks since Christmas Break when we decided to take the kids with a couple of other families for an overnight in the city. We all had such a great time that we decided we needed to do this again on our next long weekend! And Family weekend couldn't have been... Continue Reading →
