Father's Day Garrison

Went to Ravinia to see Garrison Keiller on Father's Day Eve with Kamiah's Family!


The stage


More people


My View from our lawn seats


Embarrassed by listening to Mr. Keiller's, in the spirit of Father's Day, very graphic description of a father's role in conception while seated between Kamiah's parents.

Happy Sweet Sixteen

Happy Be-lated birthday to Janell. In celebration we attended the outdoor showing of Sixteen Candles. Turning 28 and 16 have so much in common. We would not allow Janell to give away her underwear to the nerdy guys next to us though. Even if some hottie would return them to her the next day, it just isn't appropriate at 28.

"Baseball"

Lunch with Jet and Karis, overlooking Wrigley Field. There was no game- and I was okay with that.

Once, you should see it twice

Landmark Cinema is showing the movie Once. I liked it so much I felt comfortable enough to lay my head on the poster. Katy was also a fan.

Baking Soda Story

Cookies need baking soda. We have no baking soda. Time to go get baking soda.

Three of a Kind

I love Piper and Lindsay. Can you see the Concord Ivory on the wall in the background? Speaking of colors, years ago, due to my forever being 6 1/2 shades whiter than Lindsay, she began to call me her "Albino Baby". Who could ask for a more thoughtful nickname

Painting Break

Arthur opted for a break on the bed in the dining room

Concord Ivory

These are a few of the painters who worked on our livingroom this weekend. We chose Concord Ivory. And although I failed to capture a picture of the room in all its concord ivory glory, you'll have to trust me when I say it looks quite lovely.

Goodbye Waveland and Fremont!!

From One Great Place, To a Way Better Place

Moving can be very emotional.





The weekend of May 27th, 2007, Katy, Janell and Jessie moved from their cozy apartment in Wrigleyville to their "I cant believe this place is ours, no more stolen mail, and 3 really nice old doormen know our names" apartment in Lincoln Park. This is us needing a shower.
