A Life Worth Living, Is One That Is Shared...

Happy Christmas Eve!
It’s been snowing for days here in Chicago. This morning, it is snowing the largest snowflakes I have ever seen.
Photos don’t always capture the full essence of a moment, but here’s a few tries. Big flakes, falling gently. It’s actually quite beautiful.
Wishing you Happy Holidays and a Joyous New Year!

It was opening day today for Wonderland Express, the miniature train and Chicago city landmark replica exhibit at the Chicago Botanic Garden. We were there when the doors opened at 10 am.
The exhibit runs from November 28, 2008 through January 4, 2009. If you’re able to attend, not only will you see trains and landmark replicas, but be prepared for “snow” and for fun activities for children. It’s a great exhibit.
Hope you enjoy this year’s photos!
Happy Holidays,

Happy New Year!
My family and I spent the day at the Chicago Botanic Garden. There is a wonderful model train and landscape exhibit on display, complete with models of Chicago landmarks, winding bridges, a waterfall, and even snow!
Check out our photos which include the Chicago skyline and my personal favorite location, the Shedd Aquarium.
The exhibit runs through January 6 and is open daily from 10 a.m. – 7 p.m. Check out the Garden’s web site: www.chicagobotanic.org/wonderland for all the details.
Best wishes for a joyous new year!
