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.

Birthday Boy
Although we broke the tradition of visiting McCormick & Schmick’s for Karen’s Bobby’s birthday this year, we still managed to have an amazing celebration. Easy for me to say since Mama Bender and I are the ones who planned it, but Bobby also agreed. 😉 When Bobby requested that we stay in to watch the […]

Green + Gold: The Super Bowl Champions Soup
I know it’s Wednesday, but my euphoria is still lingering. The Packers won the Super Bowl!!!!!!!! It was an amazing weekend. The game was certainly a thriller and, as always, I enjoyed watching the commercials. There were a few that I wasn’t a fan of (er…Groupon) but a lot that I really appreciated. I made […]
What Dreams Are Made Of
I apologize in advance if the Lizzie McGuire song is now stuck in your head. There are just some weekends where everything falls into place. You can’t seem to do anything wrong, your world is spinning in the right direction and in general, things are just going your way. This wasn’t exactly one of those […]
