About My Family

MY BLOG

I have decided to share with viewers the places we have gone and share the things we have done as a family.  Perhaps other families with similar interests will benefit from this blog.  It is my hope that they will share with me some ideas as well.

WHO WE ARE

We are an average middle class family with 2.5 children, ages 13 and 16.  We live about 35 miles west of Chicago.   My husband and I enjoy the outdoors and are thrilled that our children have taken a similar interest in our love of nature.  My family is very close and we enjoy each others' company. I wouldn't describe us as an extreme hiking, biking, climbing, camping bunch, but we do like light hikes, looking for wildlife, admiring plants, trees, flowers, and rocks.  We do take advantage of the bike trails in the area, but nothing too long or strenuous.  We like ponds filled with frogs, turtles, and fish.  Bass fishing in local ponds on a cool, sunny afternoon is fun.  Miscellaneous interests are going to baseball games, movies, restaurants, museums, forest preserves, and state parks.
