About Me

My name is Lauren Fritts. I’m a wife and mother of two sweet and funny children, Caroline & William. My husband and kids are my first love. My extended family and dear friends I’ve accumulated over the years (who honestly feel like family) are my second love. Travel is my third love. It feels pretty good to have three great loves! Fitness (mostly the feelings that come after I’ve done the fitness) is something else that brings me joy. I’m a devout disciple of Orangetheory & Club Pilates (both of which are located in a strip mall less than a mile from my home). And – lucky for me – my job both challenges me and allows me to have fun. I work for the Chicago Cubs, and whenever anything feels overwhelming or stressful, I can literally remind myself that it really is just.a.game. I’m a bit rusty as a writer, but I promise if my blog doesn’t entertain you it will at least provide utility for your next trip!
