Eli's Coffeehouse

You can now buy Gobena Coffee at Eli's Coffeehouse in Morton, IL. They sell our 1 poung bags of coffee beans in their store, and they also brew Gobena Coffee as one of their featured coffees on a regular basis. Our son Eli thinks it's his place because it's got his name. Funny kid.

Quality time


Besides the obvious what do you and your "HONEY" do to spend quality time together? Steve and I like to talk over Gobena coffee at night after the kids are in bed or rent a movie and watch it together. We are late night people so a couple of weeks ago we went to a midnight showing of "BATMAN" while my parents watched the kids, well actually my parents and all the kids were sleeping. I would LOVE to have some new ideas so what do you do?

Steve I LOVE YOU....YOU are my best friend and I LOVE spending time with you. Thanks for being an AWESOME husband and father and friend.
