Kevin and I have often joked that the Talking Heads song Once in a Lifetime is our theme song. Hence the title of this blog. In the past 5 years Kevin and I have had 3 children, purchased our first house, moved from Chicago to my home town of Chesterton, added to our menagerie of animals and I became a stay at home mom. As we are about to embark on the next stage of our adventure, We may ask ourselves "Well how did I get here" I'm not sure that the answer is ever clear but looking back on the past 5 years, I can tell you we have had a great time arriving. Those who know me, know how much I love having the photos tell the story. I have chosen some of my favorites. These past 5 years we have experienced, first steps, words, birthdays, days of school, best friends and Christmases. The list could go on and on. Let us begin:
