Winter Time Updates!

Happy Winter Everyone!  Although I feel like life has finally slowed down a touch, things are nutzo in their own right.
I had my Women In Film Kickoff Party that I was part of the committee last week.  It was a success, but we were way over budget and didn't break even whatsoever!  Its our big membership drive, but I think people really had fun and that is also what matters!









It was a fun night, I think it went well!!!

We're still working on getting Lenny acclimated to the new house.  He is really having a hard time getting used to it- we thought a bigger space would be better for him, but I guess not.  His new thing is attempting to break into the refrigerator.  It's really annoying.  We have to put baby locks on the fridge and push the Butcher Block Island in front of it...its getting old.  We don't know what else to do!
Also - don't put plants in front of the window!  Lesson Learned!

Kyle & Marie-Elena moved to Minneapolis, but Kyle was in town and brought Tequila over for a play date with Lenny and Olive.  They're the greatest folks around, and I am already missing them so much!

And of course, my obsession with Olive continues...per usual.

Welcome, 2013!

New Years Eve was wild - we went to a wedding to the ceremony and cocktail reception for Bill's boss, then went back to the city for a party at James & Rachel's.  The photos tell this story:






And for New Years Day:
Our Huron neighbors have an annual NYD hangover brunch, and we had lots of food and good times. What made this year special and different, and that our beloved Kyle, Marie-Elena and Tequila are moving to Minneapolis.  While its super exciting and ME is so excited about her new job, its not Chicago, and we have become very near and dear friends with them.  And Tequila and the dogs love each other.
Olive still in bed, I think she and Lenny hit the town or something.







Yes, that IS bacon wrapped pineapple.
