Liam's School Concert

Last night, we had the joy of watching Liam shine on stage at his school concert!  The kids put on an amazing performance, and it was so special to see their hard work come to life.  Liam sang his heart out and had the biggest smile the entire time - we couldn't be prouder!  Moments like these are such a reminder of how fast he's growing and how lucky we are to watch him thrive.

He had tons of fun with his friends in school.

Casati's Last Call

We went to the closing night of Casati's Italian restaurant.  It was very sad to see them closing, but it's a new beginning as well.  The kids had fun and the adults too.  We will miss dinners there.

 

Clement - Blonde Boutique Sign Up Party

The St. Clement moms gathered for a lovely brunch and shopping event at my house.  My BFF from growing up, Allison and her sister Natalie, brought Blonde Boutique to Chicago.  It was such a fun way to connect, enjoy some delicious food, and browse the boutique's beautiful spring collection.

The best part?  A percentage of the proceeds went to support St. Clement School, making it a morning filled with both style and purpose.  It's always inspiring to see this amazing group of moms come together for our school community.

Great food, great shopping, and even better company - what more could we ask for?  And I got to host it with two amazing friends - Molly and Kristen.

Chicago Fire Soccer Game

We went to the Fire soccer game and the boys got to scrimmage before the game.  They had a great time.

Grandparents/VIP Day at St Clement

They celebrated Grandparents Day/VIP Day at school for the younger kids.  Oma wasn't able to come and Mimi and Papa live too far away so I was Liam's VIP for the event.  It started with activities in fireside, pictures (he took one with his teacher Ms. Conness), church where Liam read and brunch.  It was such a sweet day and I'm so happy I got to be Liam's VIP for the day.  

Mother's Day

This Mother's Day was truly one to remember!  We celebrated with a beautiful brunch at the Metropolitan Club in Chicago, surrounded by incredible food, stunning views, and, most importantly, the people I love most.

I feel so lucky to have the best family by my side.  The laughter, the heartfelt conversations, and the little moments of joy throughout the day made me realize, yet again, how blessed I am.

Mother's Day is a reminder of how special it is to share life with a supportive, loving family - and I couldn't ask for a better one.

Here's to celebrating the moms and mother figures who make life so much sweeter!
