There goes winter and spring!

The annual family chess adventure.

The science fair!

Catching air!

And playmates.

And bugs.

The costume arrives.

And Ashton arrives.

Then we're off to Chicago.

And back.

One night in Angola, IN



then Chicago!


and Sweden! (or Swedish Children's Museum of Chicago)




and some tough-guy place




and Deerfield.



'Twas the night before


and the morning of


and the day of


and the night of.


The haul


and what mommy's going to do to it.


Gotta get back to practice.





The world through Leo's lens.






And here we go...




into the new year!
