Holly & David's Wedding ~ South Beach

Holly and David got married at the National Hotel in South Beach.  They had wedding activities every night so we were very busy.  Thursday night we had dinner at Dolce and then went to Azure for drinks.  It's a very happening restaurant that turns into a club after dinner.  Friday we hung out all day at the beach and had fun watching Grayson chase seagulls.  He loved the beach and the ocean.  That night we went to The Ritz Carlton's restaurant on the beach for appetizers.  Afterwards we went to Morenos for the Cuban themed White Party.  Saturday we hung out at the pool during the day and then went to the wedding on the beach.  The weather was perfect and the Jewish ceremony was beautiful.  Afterwards, they had a cocktail hour at the hotel restaurant and then the reception was on the pool deck.  It was an amazing evening in typical Goldberg fashion, complete with bottles and sparklers like you see at the clubs.  They also had an after party at Baoli with bottle service.  We had such a great time celebrating Holly and David.  They introduced Craig and I so we are very lucky to have such great friends.   

Miami Trip with Grayson

Craig, Grayson and I went to Miami for Holly and David's wedding.  We had so much fun with Grayson.  He loved the ocean and beach.  He did try to eat the sand, but after one bite decided it was not for him.  He also held his foot up a few times because he must not have liked the feeling of the sand on his foot.  His favorite part was chasing the seagulls around the beach.  We stayed at the National Hotel in South Beach and it was such a beautiful hotel with amazing pools.   Holly's niece Sophie stayed at the same hotel so her and Grayson had fun playing together.  We were lucky to have a friend of a friend's daughter watch Grayson while we had wedding stuff so it worked out really well.  He was originally going to stay home with my mom and his nanny Marta, but she got kidney stones so we decided to take him with us and we are very glad we did.  It is so fun to see him experience new things and to see the excitement on his face.  We made a lot of fun memories and can't wait until the next family vacation.    

Ethan's 17th Birthday ~ October 13th

We celebrated Ethan's birthday at one of his favorites, Lux Bar.  Ethan is such a fun, cool kid and it's hard to believe he's driving now and going to college in 1 1/2 years.  He is such a great big brother to Grayson and a great little brother to Julia (although he is bigger).  Ethan is in swimming and water polo as well as private cello lessons.  He can also play the guitar and taught himself how to play the piano.  Happy Birthday to one amazing kid!  We love you Ethan!

My Birthday

We celebrated my birthday with Scott and Allison at Embeya in River North a few days early.  The were actually filming Check Please while we were there and they filmed us eating.  I'm not sure if we  made the final cut, but it was still fun.  It was a nice dinner and so great seeing Scott and Allison.  We also met our friends Justin and Lauren as her birthday is one day before mine.  Always fun seeing them as well. 

We also celebrated my birthday a few days late at RPM Steak.  At first it was just the girls (Amanda, Christine, Stacey and Sarah) and then Craig and my cousin Stu joined us for drinks afterwards.  We ordered several main dishes and sides and of course dessert.  The food was amazing and the atmosphere was even better.  What a fun night!
