we got new countertops recently which in turn leads to a backsplash. glass backslashes seem time consuming and tedious, but tom did it! he went back and forth about doing something like that himself. many youtube videos later…

i will post the finished kitchen when the grout is completed

p is one! i love this little sweetheart and she was so fun. and after some attempts at standing with mom and dad, we learned she was happiest sitting on a fur rug in leaves. go figure. if it is one thing i have learned from one year olds, it is that they call the shots. not me or their parents. so if they want to be happy and cute, they can sit where ever they want!

GCP has donated a tree for the Trim the Tree Event at Brookfield Zoo. We (clients) will be meeting there November 19th from 10-12 to decorate the GCP tree. Please make an ornament with your favorite GCP picture of your child/children/family and bring it to hang up. We will have refreshments as well. My family and I would love to see you and kick off the Holiday season together. I still have a few passes left for those of you that are not members. Please let me know if you are interested in the passes. Plus you can spend the rest of the day enjoying the zoo!

If you are not able to make it, but would still like to have your family on the tree, please have your ornament to me by Friday the 18th.
