Movie Time

M and I don't get to spend enough alone time together so I enjoyed every second of our free afternoon yesterday. She had a rough morning at the playground. Wood chips + nose = a bloody nose. Those darn wood chips always win! We snuggled in the movie theater and that made all things better (well, that probably had something to do with the bright blue Icee). We saw The Secret World of Arrietty. A beautiful animation and story by the legendary Hayao Miyazaki. And, the music was especially beautiful. Highly recommended!

Chicago Bulls

Yesterday, M and I saw our first Bulls game. Chris and I have lived in Chicago for over a decade now...and we haven't gone for some reason. Sad, I know! One of her little school buddies (who has a crush on M.....yep, not ready for this) invited her to the game. He even wanted to buy her a souvenir. It was so much fun....nachos, hot dog, cheesy pretzels and ice cream....oh my!
















Winter Blues

I've gotten a few calls this week asking me if everything is OK. Then I realized I've taken a bit longer break from blogging than I planned. I guess it's that time of year for me. The winter blues. I mean, I am definitely not complaining. This has been the best winter...it hit the 50's a couple of days this week. Nice and all but I am still yearning for sunny, warm crystal blue waters.

We've been having lots of fun though.
