It Must Be Fall

Last weekend, Grandma and Grandpa Jaromin paid us a visit…and unfortunately brought along the remnants of Tropical Storm Lowell and Hurricane Ike with them. Nonstop rains and regional flooding meant a weekend spent indoors. We therefore decided to spend as much of the last weekend of the Summer outdoors. One of our favorite Sept/Oct. destinations is Kuipers Family Farm in Maple Park, IL. So, after a very hot and therefore very short, Saturday morning spent at Johansen Farms in Bolingbrook, we decided to head out a bit farther to Kuipers. We invited our niece Keara along for the trip – the kids had a great time. I’m sure we’ll be back again soon!

This year’s family portrait at Kuipers…

Here’s Keara “washing pumpkins” with Annalise and Sean.

Here’s “Farmer Sean” working the fields

These sheep and goats really swarmed…we had to stay close to keep them from knocking him over. Sean loved petting and feeding the animals.

Annalise lasso’d her very first “cow”

First Portrait Sitting

Last weekend we visited Stork Snapshots just as we had with Annalise and Sean. Unlike both of his older siblings,  he cooperated right away and we were able to get some amazing shots.


If you’re out in the Chicagoland area and expecting, we highly recommend you pay these folks a visit…

Our 5th Anniversary

Last night we celebrated our 5th wedding anniversary at Morton’s in Naperville. The weather was lousy, the dinner excellent, and the company the divine.
