Dobrá Tea and more | Yorkville IL Photographer

I wanted to share a few pictures from our recent visit to Madison. We like this place! This time we just stayed for one day. We had a great lunch, strolled around the Botanical Gardens and ended up our day visiting good friends of ours.

While we were exploring the city we came across “Dobrá Tea” and I knew immediately that I wanted to go check it out. I had a feeling that this place would be connected with the Czech Republic and I was right. It brought back old memories. I remember how we used to visit Tea rooms. These places are very popular there.

You can find more information about the Origins of Dobrá Tea here.

Visit to Ellis House & Equestrian Center | Yorkville IL Photographer

It’s been a while since I posted here. Forgive me, I was super busy (which is good) and in the middle of everything my two year old computer decided to take an early retirement. But everything is back to normal and I even enjoyed a few days of nice weather with Erich. We did some local exploring, hiking and biking. Anyway we are planning a week for our honeymoon this summer. I’m so excited! :)

One of the spots we visited was Ellis House & Equestrian Center in Minooka IL. Some of you might know that I LOVE horses. I was so happy when Mike greeted us and gave us a tour. The place is lovely with a beautiful setting. Make sure to stop by and say Hello. The Ellis House provides an ideal location for you to host your special event whether it’s a wedding, banquet, meeting or party. It’s a great place for kids’ birthday parties as well. They also have family fun nights and lets not forget horseback riding lessons!

Enjoy.

Botanical Gardens | Yorkville Photographer

I wanted to share a few pictures from the botanical gardens in Madison WI. Erich’s birthday is coming up so we decided to go on a short getaway. I’m so glad we did :) but I wish we could stay longer. I loved everything about Madison. What a great place to visit. We biked, went swimming, ate too much, explored, hung out by the lake with friends. I’m so ready for our next vacation. Hope everyone is enjoying this nice weather.

Macro World {Yorkville Photographer}

Erich surprised me with a bouquet of flowers (no occasion), so I had to take some pictures before our cat Lester would get into them. I love macro photography. It’s amazing to look at the pictures and see all the tiny details. While I was taking some close-ups, I noticed an Asian lady beetle landed on one of the petals. Yes, we have some at home. It is a “leftover” from the beetle invasion we had last fall.
