Studies in Light

While we were at the DuPage Children's Museum Zach had a lot of fun playing with an interactive light display. He would turn the knobs and it would turn up and down that color of light. It seemed like his favorite color was purple

The Mad Artist

Tonight our family created a fun fall wall hanging using a big roll of paper and pastels. Mom had some leaf stencils that we used to make and color fall while Meg and Mom did that zach and Dad worked on creating a tree. Everything was going well when Zach got "creative" and started drawing what I can only describe as the swirling winds that knocked the leaves out of the tree.

Playing for the Crowd - Game 10

This week Meg had a audience to perform for, Grandma Goellner and Uncle Bobby. With extra family in the crowd and Dad reffing his first game of the fall Meg knock in 2 goals and had a lot of assists with her teammates. The Green Lizards put up a good fight and it was a very fun game to watch.

Only a few more games left until it is time for Meg to hang up the cleats for the winter.

Game On! A Meg Movie - Game 9

Tomorrow. Tomorrow.

Today, Meg went to her first Broadway show, Annie, which is showing at the newly renovated LaSalle Bank Theater in Chicago famed Theater district.

The whole day was exciting for her. She started her day by having breakfast with Dad at Blueberry Hill then jumping on the train and heading to Chicago. She was quite the little commuter while Dad read the paper she looked out the window and colored. Once downtown she headed to Mom’s work in the Chicago Board Of Trade. After putting in some hard work making birthday cards Mom’s colleagues it was time for lunch. We all went to on of our favorite pre show eateries, The Italian village. Meg really liked all the action and commotion around he She also made a new friend in the maitre d’.

With stomachs filled Dad had Meg and Mom over to his office to show off the new digs and then it was time for the show.
