Left me speechless

   

Left me in stitches :)

     

Mother Daughter Book Group Goes Painting


Was so fun to take a break from the books 
and test our skillz on the canvas. 
  
Unfortunately, I must have left my talent at the office
(and Cody & I may have each had a 40 en route on the Metra)


[details, details]
 
but somewhere between paint brushes, I took a left turn (slash stroke) and decided to F  the whole instruction part and made Regan a belated gift for her birthday instead :) 
   
We both love Winnie the Pooh, 
so I went with a favorite quote
in hopes the thought would count
(more than the outcome ;)  
  
Here's what it was supposed to look like: 
  
And here's how my 
not-so-VanGough version:
turned out
  
I hope she likes it :)
  
Gotta give a shout out to TipsyPaint --
if there's one close to you, 
DO IT TO IT!
  
Here's how everyone else's turned out...
soooooo impressed!
  

One VIC-TORIOUS Bachelorette Wknd


Words cannot describe my excitement for 
Vicky & Doug's wedding this June, 
in ITALY!!! 

If the bachelorette party was any indication 
of the awesomeness that's still ahead, 
LOOK.OUT.WORLD :)

Love you, Vic!

  
PS: Was great to see you NYC!
You capture my heart, as always...
      

Sandbox Outings


Whenever I get frustrated with work, I remind myself how lucky 
I am to be surrounded by the best team in the entire city :)

Trolley around Chicago
GO CUBS GO!
HAWKS WIN :)

HeadHoods!


My buddy Clint is a genius.
I encourage you all to buy a masterpiece instantaneously.
And that's all I have to say about that :)
  

Just Another Day at the Office...

Made Me Giggle

HAPPY (BELATED) BIRTHDAY, NICKI :)



Was so wonderful to get to spend time with you & Nicholas 
(and see the whole Sacco fam) 
before your BIG move to Seoul
  
I remain in awe of the two of you and absolutely adore living vicariously through your incredible adventures :) 

They say that some people come into your life for a reason, some for a season, and some for a lifetime -- I'm just so thrilled and fortunate that you fit in all three categories.
  
Cheers to a million more laughs and international memories together. Counting down the days to come to visit you in South Korea next year!!
  
XOXOXO
