My hubby, Eric, and I have been working on a series of one shots about our Pugs. See more of #Pugcentric here!

Here are a few things I came across that I wanted to share. Hopefully they’ll fill your week with some inspiration and levity. Enjoy! 

Christmas Things
It’s a very Christmas-y weekend! Yesterday, we had our annual Music Box Theater’s Christmas show. If you’re a Chicagoan, and you’ve never been, you should definitely make it a holiday tradition. Today, the hubby is taking me to see Home Alone, accompanied by the Chicago Symphony Orchestra and I’m so excited! More details to come.
