2012 is a momentous year. Today, March 12th, The Girl Scouts turn 100, and my oldest son turns 11!
Happy happy birthday Du-Jay!!
Earlier this month, on my little sister's 40th birthday, March 4th, Chicago turned 175! We'll have loads of Girl Scout features throughout the spring at ChiIL Mama, including an exclusive video interview with our Girl Scout chapter CEO, and the director at Journey World. We'll also have cookie updates, photo filled recaps of scout events including the Wolves Hockey Game, Snoozeum at MSI, Ice Skating at Skatium in Skokie and so much more! So check back like we vote in Chi, IL...early and often.
