What awaits mommy ...

If you can't beat Winter ... have fun with it, right?

Emery and Miles wanted to build snow-people to welcome mommy back from sunny Southern California!

Crazy Weather

Some know that we've been without power for most of the day. Came back up earlier this evening after 27 hours. This entire June has been mostly below-average in temperature and very rainy. But the last few days have been especially bad.

Yesterday afternoon and evening the Chicago area was socked with storm after storm. And this morning we found quite a bit of wind damage to trees all over our neighborhood and Downers Grove in general. Fortunately, no injuries reported.
