Party Time!!!!

First, I would like to thank Rob for the new song choices...LOVE this song!
Here are some highlights of our last few days!
Thursday:
Thursday was the March of Dimes benefit dinner. It was an amazing night! We sat at the front table with 3 other families from the NICU. Our friends, the Wittmans, were being honored as the ambassador family for the night. They showed a very touching video about their family and their struggles..it helped raise $13,000 for March of Dimes.

In addition to the Wittmans, we sat with the Luca (Abigail's NICU boyfriend) and his family! We love hanging out with them. They bought a fun item in the auction...Luca's name is the main character's name in a new novel coming out...they just have to decide if he's the good guy or the villian.

Mommy, Abigail, Luca, Raquel (Abigail and Luca look so much a like...even Mrs. Illinios came over and asked if we were a family!)
Saturday:
We started Saturday with a complimentary lunch at Brickhouse Tavern in Lombard, which is opening next week..it was a great lunch and restaurant/bar! (Althought Rob forgot to mention till the car ride that the atmosphere was similar to Hooters..needless to say they didn't have a high chair for Abigail!)
We then headed to The Devonshire, where my grandma lives, for their Halloween party. It was a great afternoon!




Saturday night we went over to the Kunz's house for a bonfire. It was a GREAT time! They have a son, Jack, who is a little over 2 years old. He is so cute! We had a great time sitting outside and enjoying a bonfire in Palatine!!!! (No pics, sorry). Thank you John and Meg for having us over!
Save the Date: April 29th is the March of Dimes family walk. We'll be creating a team in Abigail's name to walk!!!! We would love to have everyone join us!
Since there is no Bears game today, we'd like to say "Go Redskins (playing the Lions)!"
