AND i have good news... thanks to emergency heart surgery and great doctors my grandpa is on the road to recovery. thank god. this is just another reminder that life is absolutely beautiful - remember to take the time to tell the ones you care about that you love them! 


this weekend was full of other great things:: 

a saturday date with my cousin (and matron of honor).

gorgeous weather. i got to wear flats and i ditched my coat + boots! BRING ON SPRING WEATHER.
my little brother nick's birthday! he turned 25 this saturday.
we lost an hour - but that means it will stay out lighter longer...i see some bike rides in my near future. 
sunday brunch date with my old co-workers... lots of laughs and tri-berry oven pancakes
a sunday afternoon nap.
sunday dinner at decolores (a family favorite mexican restaurant in chicago).

Jillian, I lost my grandfather last month so I know how much it can hurt. I am so happy to hear he is on the road to recovery. Its those moments that make you realize how much of an impact they have on your lives!
