Overall, 2013 was really good to us. We started the year settled into our new home, but had no idea just how much out-of-state adventure Bobby’s new job would bring us. We ended the year with a nice change of pace, however, and in 2014 are looking forward to exploring more of what’s right here […]

Lambeau Leaps
The traditional third wedding anniversary gift is supposed to be leather. Admittedly, Bobby and I had no idea that was the case when we decided a late November trip to Chicago and Green Bay would be our gift to one another this year, but it ended up working out perfectly.

A Fabulous Fall Visit
Last week, we celebrated one year in our house. I know it’s a cliché, but I honestly can’t believe how fast time flies. I still remember weekends spent touring dozens of homes, the bummer of being on the losing end of our first offer and the overwhelming joy we felt when we realized that house […]

I took a short break from blogging this past week to enjoy a visit to a city you may have read about once or twice on this blog…Chicago! Officially, I was in town for a work conference, which was very interesting with a lot of great speakers. Unofficially, I arrived a few days early in […]
