| Easily the weekend's highlight was attending a Chicago Symphony Orchestra concert! It was a special treat, attending with daughters Emily and Hannah. The entire program was fabulous, and the guest artist Lisa Batiashvili and guest conductor, James Gaffigan, were excellent! My favorites were the Bacchanale from Samson and Delilah by Saint-Saens, and Night on Bald Mountain by Mussorgsky. |
 |
| Scott helped me out by installing my new pegboard (from IKEA) in my sewing studio. Work in progress in the background, more on that later. |
 |
| It looks great! |
 |
| Before the CSO concert, we went out for dinner at Gia Mia. Everything was delicious! We had zucchini fries, meatballs with polenta, gnocchi, and pizza. |
 |
| Girls night! We decided we definitely need to do this more often, next time with Genevieve too. |
 |
| Saturday I got to do a little fabric shopping/therapy and get a few boxes checked on my Shop Hop passport. Most of the fabrics are Moda, except for the blue and green prints which are Northcott. The two gray prints are for the backs of baby quilts, the dog prints are for dog bandanas, and the others are just for my stash. |

| Our lab, Dora, just LOVES being outside in the summertime. That is her happy place, for sure! |
 |
| We love being outside too, and have been eating most meals outside this summer. I just noticed that you can see both dogs in this photo - Buddy is under the table. This delicious dinner was mostly from IKEA, Swedish meatballs and mashed potatoes. Yum! |
