Hello! I’m Heather, a wife, and mom to three little boys. I live in the north Chicago suburbs. Welcome to my blog Hometown Heather! I am including you in our local adventures and trips. My hope is to inspire you when your family needs somewhere to go or something to do.
I grew up on a farm and went to a small-town high school with a graduating class of only thirty-eight students. After graduating college from Northern Illinois University, I gave up farm life to move to the suburbs of Chicago. A few years later, I married my college sweetheart. Then we were blessed with Caden, Connor, and Carson, all born within fives years. Our house is far from quiet, but they are a joy to raise.
