Joe got into NOTRE DAME!!!!

Joe got his acceptance into Notre Dame last week! So Linda,Darrell and I decided to throw him a little party last weekend to celebrate! 
We had a pool party/bbq and Joe and I wore green to add to the celebration!
So proud of him! This has been his dream since he was a kid and it's so exciting to know he's accomplishing his dream. 
Love him!
Darrell wrote this on their chalkboard kitchen wall once he heard the news of his son getting into Notre Dame! 
So sweet

5k at Notre Dame and Dispatch in Chicago!




The first weekend of June Joe,AJ, Jen and I went to South Bend (Notre Dame) to run a 5k on Saturday morning. Joe and I finished well considering that we haven't ran in over two months. We clocked in around 31 minutes.
After the race we went to Chicago to meet up with Dave, Jenny, Kelley and Jonathan to see Dispatch. Once we got to Chicago we stopped at our cousin Jordan's apartment to say hello. We then drove to our hotel and stopped in Giadorno's pizzeria to have our traditional deep dish pizza with AJ and Jen. We then met up with everyone near Little Italy to enjoy some drink's and food and catch the hockey game before the concert. The concert was a ton of fun!
The next day, Joe and I spent some q.t. time in Chicago. We normally go to Cafe Lux for brunch but we decided to try this Italian Deli we heard about on TV. It was delicious! I got a beef brisket panini and it was the best thing I've ever had.
