Last weekend sisters took advantage of the surprise seventy degree weather and went for a walk in the woods. It was a beautiful morning!

On Saturday Chicago Area sisters supported the Arthritis Foundation's Freedom of Movement Gala!
Thank you to all who fundraised, donated auction items, or volunteered at the event!

Thank you to Natalie for teach us how to make a beautiful flower bouquet at last night's meeting! Everyone brought two bouquets to share, which allowed for us to mix and match. Each bouquet came out beautiful and unique.

Last night we kicked off a new season of book club! Our first selection was a book by our AOII sister Kerry Lonsdale and it was called "Find Me in California". This was our first discussion of two! We are excited to join the AOII Foundation at their Rose Vine Social Hour later this month, which Kerry will be joining!

Thank you to everyone that joined us tonight to kick-off a new year! This year we are focused on sisterhood and fun, and hope that you can join us at an event or two!

Sisters, sunny days, and brunch!

Patti enjoyed this summer by spending time with her family. Patti's granddaughter came up from Houston for a few days and Patti was surprised to see that her granddaughter was almost taller than her!
