One of the best things about my career at PrideStaff is the opportunity to travel -- just enough and not too much! I especially love the annual trips to Chicago, and the times when I get to visit family there. Last week I attended a Board of Directors meeting downtown -- my first "winter" trip to The Windy City, brrrr -- and then took the train out to the suburbs to see my stepsister Kristin and her family. It was a quick overnight stay at their beautiful home in West Dundee, but a good opportunity to shop, talk, have delicious food (no trip is complete without a meal at Geno's East Pizza!), and spend time with her kids. Jack and Nick are both 15 and probably could care less about a boring old aunt, but I thoroughly enjoy time with my now 10-year-old niece Sophia. Thank you, Kristin, for always making me feel so welcome in your home. Sitting at your kitchen counter drinking coffee and talking with the family is one of my favorite places to be!
