An Unexpected Blessing~

Thanks to the M. Family

and their generous gift of a buddy pass,

I was recently able to see my dad

in the Chicago area

for some wonderful time together!

It will be a cherished memory~

I love you, dad!

~I have to add that my incredible

husband watched our three kids 

without complaint and held the

'ranch' down at home for the

10 days I was gone :)
