Chicago - Wait, What?

I haven't posted in a LONG time.. so long that we moved to Chicagoland and now have a full blown teenager and tween.

Here is how it all started - way back in Summer of 2021 

So we sold the house in Dallas 

I accepted the role at THS 

And off we went ...

But, first, we dropped David off at Camp Dudley - for his first ever 3 week sleep away camp. 

Then we had three weeks alone with Henry to get to know our new home... 

                                                summer concerts in the park

a new library 

a dreadful mid-west haircut 

cute downtown restaurants 

dogs getting to know the new house 

The house 

David even wrote us a few times 

Henry really enjoyed the only child gig

Camp pickup - pretty certain he went 3 weeks without a shower 

Flying home - first time going to new house 

Few more days of summer...

And then boys started new schools -  Hinsdale Middle School for 6th grade and Oak Elementary for 3rd grade (note- we'll take later about how second grade got missed... long story)
