Life's Little Blessings

Merry Christmas from the Stansfield's. We are wishing you Joy, Love and Peace in the next year.   Maggie (5 1/2 years) James ( 15 mos) and Eva ( 7 years)

 Tonight was the girls Christmas concert at school.  Eva did it at her last school in Kindergarten and 1st grade when she attended All Saints.  This is year was special because she was a a new school but Maggie was able to do it as well.  They sang so stinkin' cute and so did the other children.  Afterwards, like Stansfield tradition we went out for ice cream and dinner at Colonial Cafe.

Today the kids and I met up with my good friend Kristen and she also happens to James' god mother, at her home in Chicago. After we picked her up we went to Lincoln Park Zoo.  We are able to some animals but unfortunately since it was kind of cold a lot of them in the buildings for the night.  We are definately going to put this on our to do list for the Spring/Summer fun.  Here are some pictures that Kristen took and had fun enhancing them on Instagram.

Despite the rain we were able to get a good hour of trick or treating in and the kids made out for sure. Next year will be interesting with Baby Stansfield and a walking James to add to the mix. Here are few pictures of the fun.
