Many of us listen to loud music when we're working out. Have you ever wondered if that's affected your hearing? Or maybe you're just getting older and feel like you don't hear as well. Henry Ford Health has a quick and easy hearing test you can take online. ⬇️

Lauren and I were in Northville this week and met two adorable dogs! Meet Scrunchy (left) & Calvin Hobbs (just chillin')! ☺️ LOVE the names.
I want to hear the most unique, funny, or just downright adorable dog names you've ever heard (or come up with yourself)! 🐕

So many emotions tonight. We’re officially empty nesters now… or as someone said recently, “bird launchers”. I kind of like that one better.

We spent much of the weekend in Chicago getting Adam all moved into the new apartment he’s sharing with three of his friends. It was so much fun spending time with him and his girlfriend, eating at great restaurants and experiencing the city he’s going to be calling home.

He starts his job in sales tomorrow. We couldn’t be more proud of him! Go get ‘em, Adam. We love you!

(I think Eric was trying to impart some last minute advice in the last picture! ☺️)

I may be looking at Mark a little too adoringly! 😂🤷🏻‍♀️

There were so many surprise moments at Lauren & Isaac's wedding last weekend. Jason, Ben and I broke some of them down last week on the show. What we didn't touch on in this segment is that my boss showed up at the wrong wedding and put his card in the other couple's card box 🙃, and that my diamond from my wedding ring fell out sometime during Lauren & Isaac's ceremony! 😬 (To be found by my son a little later! Phew!)

As you'll hear, I was blessed to get a special dance with my daughter. Thank you, Joe Maroon for that! And Isaac, oh, can you sing! What an amazing first dance it was. None of us, including Lauren, knew it was coming. (You'll hear part of the Morgan Wallen song he covered about 1:30 into the video 🥰)

Saturday was nothing short of magical!
Lauren married the love of her life in a ceremony that honored God and Isaac & Lauren's love for each other. We then celebrated with our beautiful family & friends.

Lauren said to me yesterday, “Mom, it was the best day of my life.” 🩷 I couldn’t ask for more than that.

(Thanks to Carrie House photography for some of the pics ~ sneak peeks from her Instagram page! Can't wait to see all of them. She captured the essence of the day so beautifully!)
