One of our regular trips visiting the wedding venue in Milwaukee . . . any excuse to spend the day by the water!

We spent an afternoon with Jeff, Ellen, and Stewart whale watching in California; a day filled with salty sea air, curious ocean creatures, and spectacular views!

The holiday parties at Matt's work always gave us a chance to snap a few cutesy and goofy shots in the photo booth!

Matt's still in blissful awe that she said yes, and Jenny never passes up an opportunity to proudly display her sparkly ring!

Sure, public displays of affection's are annoying, but sometimes we can't resist!

By the water is where I want to be, and with you is infinitely more incredible.

On a road trip with Jenny, Michelle, Robin, and Tom there was never a dull moment!

On our first visit together to the Bay Area of California, we couldn't resist this backdrop!

From our first apartment in Glencoe, just blocks away from Lake Michigan, we would walk Lucy down to where she loved to play on the beach during any season of the year.

Lucy Rudy and Chloe Math spend another afternoon together, this time at an Autumn Festival in Indiana!

We thought this Christmas Card Photo Shoot would be a nightmare, but it was quite smooth for two seasoned divas!

These sisters grew up apart from each other, lived together for a time, convene occasionally for reunions, and will never admit just how much they love each other!

Michelle never needs to do much to make any of us laugh!

Jenny, Uncle Don, Michelle, Robin, Grandma Brokaw, and Tom during one of our treasured get-togethers.

Matt, Stew, Jeff, and Ellen take a quick break from sightseeing at the Monterey Bay Aquarium.

No trip to San Francisco is complete without a selfie in front of the Golden Gate Bridge!

Allie and Jenny, sisters in spirit, cousins in closeness, friends forever, and almost twins from only a decade and change apart!

Are we close to the water? Where's the camera? Time for another selfie.

Off to an outdoor event in October, a typical Chicago Fall weather day with temperatures plunging far below freezing!

Jenny and Stewart spy with their eyes something moving in the waters of Monterey Bay.

Matt holds baby Jackson Lane Tucker during his first days in the hospital; cousin Maggy's most recent addition and Annabelle Lee's baby brother.

Jenny catches a few minutes with Jackson Lane. That sparkle in her eye is real, and present whenever she gets to hold a baby!

Annabelle has to get a turn with her Godmother on the water!

Aaron (Annabelle and Jackson's dad and Maggy's fiance) and Jenny spend quality time near the lake in Indiana.

Matt, Lucy and Tom take a break from trimming the hedges by the shore to show their teethy smiles!

Jenny and Uncle Ray . . . No, sir! You can't escape a picture!

Uncle Ray, I think there's a more efficient and effective way to catch fish!

Jenny and her most admired guy; Tom and his precious Jen Jen.

Everything is better when Grandma is around!

Three of the five Brokaw children and their mom; Robin, Dan, Grandma, and Julie at a summertime celebration at Uncle Dan and Aunt Sarah's house.

Jenny, cousin Tony, and Michelle during our traditional Christmas game of dice, where money is involved and competition is stiff!

Uncle Ray and Jenny get a spare moment to snap a sweet photo during Christmas at Grandma and Grandpa's.

Cousin Alexis and Jenny take advantage of the annual Hansen Christmas Party to take a quick picture, while Michelle takes advantage of being unnoticed to photobomb!

Posing pleasantly for a Christmas card, Michelle and Jenny do their best to calm Chloe into a photogenic pose.

Before long one of them says something to crack up the other, and the laughter is interminably infectious, even if Chloe is not amused!

Uncle Ray, Aunt Julie, Robin, Tom, Matt, and Jenny (behind the camera) right before boarding a sightseeing cruise down the Milwaukee River.

Tammy and Jenny hit the road as we caravan together in our move from Milwaukee back to Northbrook!

Sometimes Uncle Ray is the only one who laughs at Matt's jokes, and Matt is the only one who laughs at Uncle Ray's jokes, but they enjoy every minute of it!

When you love the kids you nanny for this much, and when they adore you just as much, it's easy to fit all three of you in the frame, upside down or rightside up!

Jenny and Maya spend time make face and taking pictures, somethings never get old!

Aunt Julie, Uncle Ray, and Robin by the water in one of many summertime afternoons on the lake in Indiana.

Matt and Stew spend quality time together in one of their favorite places, the water.

Matt, Uncle Ray, Aunt Julie, Robin, and Tom sit patiently as best family friends Terry and his son Brandon set up their annual Fourth of July fireworks display on the lawn of their home in Michigan.

Robin and Jenny on the cruise down the Milwaukee River!

During St. Patrick's Day in Edison Park in Chicago, and little Allie making sure that her forehead is festively adorned and she is in the picture too!

You can never have enough photos with Uncle Ray!

These girls are crazy about each other, it's impossible to tell who loves the other more!
