Yesterday I scrolled though facebook and noticed that it has finally started snowing this winter in Chicago. While the kids would probably be upset if they knew they were missing their first chance to go sledding this year, I couldn’t be happier to be doing this instead…

Picnic with Bob’s Pizza. Reminds me of the good old days at Deerfield Beach

We were joined my sister and her family…

I was so happy to see Lara!

Also my friend Gina, her sister Natalie and Natalie’s son Joey joined…

And Gina!!!

We left the twins in the hotel with Japo so we could fully enjoy this day with the older boys. Cousins Clay and Brandy took turns playing with them, as did Adam…
