Welcome!

We made the move from Brooklyn to the Burbs! We're a family of 4 who left our railroad apartment for a house with a backyard in Jersey. We still travel into the city for work and fun, but we're excited to see what the burbs have to offer. I am a working mom, but I love to sew, party plan, see a Broadway show or attend an event in the city. I'm finding a new balance of life between the Suburbs and the City and look forward to what this adventure will bring.
