Sam Magdal at Finley's Grill Room

Last night, Neil and Lisa came over for awhile with Gabriel and Vincent. It's so much fun to see them, especially when we're not expecting it. They looked so cute in their matching argyle polo shirts. Gabriel watered my plants for me and Vincent sat on my lap as we watched a taped segment of Cat Stevens. Vincent joined in singing "Moon Shadow"...so cute!

After Neil and Lisa left for Target, Bob and I went to Finley's Grill Room in Lombard for dinner and music. The food is always good and this night, after eating, we went into the massive bar where we were able to watch the end of the Sox game (unfortunate as that was) and listen to Sam Magdal sing Frank Sinatra and Dean Martin music. It was a very enjoyable evening!

Taken

Bob and I went to see the movie "Taken" at the Glen today. We both thought it was an awesome movie! We highly recommend you go see this movie, especially if you're in the mood to see the bad guys get their butts kicked! Liam Neeson was terrific!

GianLuca's 2nd B-day

Family Easter Brunch

We're planning the first stay-at-home Easter Brunch for our family since.., well, I really can't remember if we ever stayed home for Easter! Debbie is hosting the brunch and everyone is contributing something. I'm making my egg strata, trying my hand at sausage bread and maybe salad and a fruit tray. We'll also probably have pizzagaine (truly don't know how that's supposed to be spelled!), Lamb cake and maybe a ham. I'm really looking forward to a more low key (and less expensive) day. This picture is from Gabriel's first Easter.
