Too much to try and recap, but I'll just start with the latest...
Ok, I started that sentence at least a month ago. So, the following pics are not the latest, but I'll start with what I uploaded then.
West Side Market Gala!
Great Lakes brewed a special batch for the Gala, "Butcher's Brew". It was a yummy concoction of Christmas Ale and other special ingredients. As part of the festivities we were supposed to get a Celebratory Bottle, but unfortunately, thanks to party crashers (who didn't pay the $250 per ticket price!) we did not receive it as the organizers ran out! We were pretty disappointed since it was meant to be a very unique souvenir and we paid a pricey sum. Oh well! Nonetheless it was a great time.
UofI Homecoming Weekend
We made the nine-hour trek (broken up in two days) from Cleveland to Champaign to visit Joe's alma mater and check out the Illini game. It was interesting to be back on a college campus, with kids, and I did feel a little old. :(

Girls dominating table tennis in Joe's frat house (and a glimpse into the near future?)

Sofia has moved on to riding on her own (well, she doesn't have a handler per se) and is learning to cantor and whip her pony Jimmy (she wants a whip for Christmas).

Peek-a-boo Fiona!
Our W Roomies (Will and Mae) this past spring
New roomie! Sofia holds Baby Theo (or Baby Jay?). Only a day old.
Babies W were born a day before we left for Mexico. The boys were (are) adorable!
We formed a Girl Scouts Troop and this was our first hiking outing in May.
Sofia's a Turtle!
