Favorite room in this house: The kitchen is the heart of our home. We love to cook together for family and friends.

Favorite thing about Naperville: Naperville is the whole package—great schools, parks, health care and a vibrant downtown. And while it has become a big city, it has maintained a strong sense of community. We love that it still has that small-town feel.

A family tradition: We love hosting Thanksgiving—it’s our favorite holiday. We spend the whole day with our families cooking, eating, and playing games. It is the perfect day—all about family, food, and giving thanks for what’s important in life.

Anything else: We really love our home, but soon we’ll be empty-nesters. We are looking to stay in the same neighborhood and build something smaller.
