This time Jeff's travels took him to Chicago!!! Guess who's BFF lives in the windy city? Precious Lucy and Ruby are together again after almost a year!! She has missed her so much! We have been counting down the sleeps since we told her about this special trip! Not only did she get to see her long lost friend, she got to finally meet Kit, and celebrate Miss B's birthday!

How cute are these three with their bows all on the same side!!

This just makes me smile! Ruby is so happy!!!!

Thank you Bridget and Rich for loving our girl for a few days. What a blessing it is to have friends like you!!! B even got Ruby to take a nap! Was she two the last time she did that for me? Bridget, you are the baby whisperer!!! I can't wait until you train Emme Jade for me!

Tomorrow my sweet girl comes back. Sienna will be so excited. Earlier today she yelled from the kitchen, "Mom... How do you spell, "I miss you Ruby!" Priceless!

Less than one month and it's my turn to leave on a jet plane and visit my pal! I get to play with Bridget and all of the girls at the beach soon! I can't wait!!

Bridget posted pics from their fun day at Lake Michigan today here!
