Jumping All Over the Place!
May 2016 saw lots and lots of rain and cold. It wasn’t until the end of the month that spring and summer started to emerge. That meant finding lots of ways to expend energy, including a two-for-one day of fun with Aidan at the bounce house place and Josh at the trampoline park. Colin slept…

Zoo-mania in Philly
Always fun to catch up with friends, and even better when it’s at the zoo! Yes, keeping track of 6 little ones may have proven a challenge for 6 middle-aged adults. But, we all had fun and came out with everyone!
A Tale of Two Weekends
A tale of two very different September weekends – one was spent low-key at home with the boys and the other was living it up in Chicago with the girls for a bachelorette weekend. Both were fun and exhausting in their own ways!
