Abby's new BFF

Sydney has been terrified of Abby for 3 1/2 years (basically her whole life). She is afraid of anything that moves including all dogs, cats, squirrels, etc. Suddenly about a week ago Sydney started asking to see Abby and asking her parents for a puppy for x-mas. Here is the first time Sydney has ever sat next to Abby (or any dog). I think Abby and Sydney are going to be BFFs before long.

I am so proud of Sydney (and Abby)!


Abby and Sydney love eachother!!!

Girls On The Run is sooooo much fun!

A few pictures from this weekend's GOTR 5K & 1/2 marathon. This year's race was open to males too. It was great to see so many fathers and daughters running together.

Thank you to John Nelson, our photographer who shot the event for free! His work continues to WOW me! Check out his website. He does primarily kid's sports/event photography. http://jnphoto.printroom.com/

Good friends and good food in the Windy City

Here are a few pictures I have been meaning to post from my trip to Chicago...

Dinner at Toro (our fav sushi place in all of Chicago) with Rynells, Lindsay and Steve. Yes, the Oh My God roll really did make us say OMG!

Dessert at Molly's & a picture from my day at work with Rynell. They let me set up shop for the day in their conference room so I could get some work done. Did I mention I love Imerman Angels, Rynell and their newest staff member Laura? http://www.imermanangels.org/

You learn something new everyday!

I just learned that I can "follow" other people's blogs. How easy breazy to keep tabs on family and friends and their adventures. I just started adding a couple blogs that I know but still, this is all rather new to me.

I created my blog mostly to post pictures for my family and a couple friends to view. We'll see if I ever become a full out blogger. I think it is almost a rule that you must have kids to do this, it gives you great material. :) Sorry Paula & Mom, don't hold your breath, not happening anytime soon.

Friends/family who read this, send me your blog address if you have one. I'll add you to "blogs I follow."
