These past few days have been so enjoyable to me.
We have kept the t.v off and just enjoyed each other.

It's. Been. Amazing!!

These kids sure know how to take my mind off of all that is going on right now
and reminds me of what is really important.










Took a drive out to Elwood and stopped at the park. 
My new favorite place to bring the kids!!

A new take on my crazy, beautiful life

I'm sure as most of you who have read through some of my blogs, I am by FAR a writer. 
I've never been good at writing papers, essays, etc....

My passion is to tell stories through pictures or videos. 

So that's exactly what I'm going to do. I'm trying something new and am rather excited about it.

I will be blogging about our crazy, out of control beautiful life....

Via video and photo's. 

Here is just a preview of what I have so far in the last couple years.

Time to Break out!


It is the second week of March and it is starting to feel like Spring!! 

Sitting in the house while the kids play and I try and pick up the kitchen a bit, I quickly realize just how nice it is outside.
And just how CRAZY I am for not busting them out to get some much needed fresh air and a chance to run around. Those bikes need exercise too!

*~*So crazy to wear flip flops and play in the snow*~*

Hands On

After going to the museum, I figured it was time to get the kids more hands-on with stuff rather then 
having the t.v. on or playing on a phone.

So I ran to the store and got a few things to get them down and dirty. 
(Don't worry, We put down plastic wrap around the table)










 Even Finley got in to it!






Spontaneous Adventures

Dev and I wanted to get out of the house and get the kids active in something. 
The mall is usually our go-to place to walk and let the kids play but today, Devan had a better idea.

Museum of Science and Industry! 



Devan and I have not been here since we were little. I know the last time for me was when I was 6 or 7.
It has definitely changed since then and probably 10x's cooler then 25 years ago.
(wow....I don't like saying that out loud)

Saying, Ireland and Dublin loved it would be an understatement.
