We’re getting personal today on the blog! Yesterday I decided to upload the photos from my cell phone to my computer to free up space. The result was a trip down memory lane, as I had 3 years worth of photos on my cell phone. Before there was a blog and a DSLR camera there was a girl and her iPhone. Have a look:

- A DIY Thanksgiving centerpiece, from 2010, made by carving gourds and using them as bud vases.
- Me and Peter, at our first trip to Zoo Lights at the Lincoln Park Zoo.
- St. Patrick’s Day 2012 by the Chicago river.
- Flowers and a Birthday Cake that my family brought to Chicago from one of my favorite bakeries at home in Ann Arbor, Michigan.
- My Dad teasing Lydia back in Michigan on a summer afternoon.
- My first time meeting my furry “niece” Maya, my brother’s husky puppy, when he brought her to Chicago… she’s now huge!
- A photo from Green City Market makes me long for summer in Chicago!
- Walking around the neighborhood with my mom and brother, Donnie, on Mother’s Day last year.
- The first picture I took of our lab George, and his brothers, while volunteering at PAWS to send Peter and convince him that we needed another dog… it worked!
- Lydia and George on the prowl at the park.
- Jay-Z and Kanye West’s ‘Watch the Throne’ tour at the United Center… Amazing!
- Me and Sam… before there was a blog… and before I grew my bangs out.
- My sweet boys.
- Greg playing dog walker in northern Michigan with my 2 dogs, his 2 dogs, and his parents 2 dogs. Their names are Gus, Charlie, Herb, Calvin, Lydia and George… it sounds like the bingo roster at a nursing home!









Fun pics…love the thanksgiving center piece.
Fun stuff. You are pretty with the bangs, and without! Thanks for sharing.
Green City Market – oh yeah!
Lovely pictures and so cute puppies!
