As a special surprise for G’s recent accomplishments (graduation and confirmation), I planned a fun mother daughter trip to Chicago this summer! She loves Chicago…it is one of her favorite cities! Instead of just telling her we were going on a trip, I put together a slow reveal of the surprise. Inside the four blue […]
puerto rico
It has been a week since my family returned from our spring break trip to Puerto Rico, and I’ve had time to reflect on our favorite moments of the vacation. Of course, the best part was spending time together as a family…with three busy kids, it is difficult to even eat a meal together most […]
