Back Home
We went back to IL for a long weekend to celebrate many special events – My mother-in-law graduated with her Master’s degree, my brother turned 20, my niece was dedicated and it was Mother’s Day! Needless to say we were super busy but had a great time! Today I will be enjoying several loads of laundry and unpacking…I bet you are jealous!! 😉
Here are a couple of my favorite photos from the trip…I promise to post more pictures once I get through a few loads of laundry!
