October 2008

Here are our pictures from October. Notable events in October included a trip to Stronghold (the castle where Ian and I got married and where I worked at summer camp during college); a trip to Morton Arboretum (it was a beautiful fall day, as the pictures will show); a visit from Heidi and Baby Nadia!; carving pumpkins with Daddy; a visit from Uncle Ross! (he had been downtown staying at the Trump Towers-- umm...); a Halloween party at a local community center (little did we know that we would be the ONLY adults in costume); and last, but not least, Halloween!

I've added the October 2008 album to our Shutterfly site: October 2008

September 2008

Here are our pictures from September. Notable events in September included Emmerson's first day of preschool (!), my 34th birthday (whoa, are you serious?), a visit from Grandma and Grandpa Collin, a visit to the Field Museum, and a trip to a really cool corn maze/pumpkin patch/hayride purveyor! Hope everyone is doing well. We miss you!
