So after a long sabbatical here we go.... This summer has been such a blur, we are always on the go and there has been so many events both good and bad that we will never forget. We lost my Grandmother on July 11, to a blood infection she got after breaking her hip. It was a long and hard month, we will all surely miss her. Before she passed we were fortunate to be able to tell her that we had chosen a name for our little girl, Elise Anne (Anne for her).


On July 18th went to Nashville, TN to visit Erin and Henry. We had a great time. We visited many of the neat stores downtown, there were so many boot and country apparel stores it was fantastic. They even let us try them on :O)
After a brief tour of the downtown area they started to partake in the local music and festivities. Here is a picture of them at the end of the night. I'd Say its a pretty good thing they had a sober driver. :O) Oh and on a side note, I would like add that the night ended at a ripe 'ol time of 10pm haha We had a great time and hope to be able to go back and visit them again soon.
Then the following weekend, Aug 1st we went back up to Schaumburg for my cousin Drew's wedding. It was a beautiful wedding ceremony and reception. here is a picture of me and Eric before the ceremony.
