So sorry it's been a while since I posted. Seems life has been nutty lately with travel, baby, JK politician, a beach trip for the family, work, boxing up house stuff and the list goes on...

1. work travel: I've been back to work about 6 weeks and have gone on 3 trips. All were enjoyable, but did keep me away from the charming Zane, my JK politician and my very supportive and loving husband. I did get to go to a Mets game while in NYC and we were treated like total rock stars (guess purchasing in-stadium advertising will get you far in life.) Had yummy burger and shake there, along with fantastic seats behind home plate. Okay, so the Mets stunk it up this year, but it was so fun to check another stadium off my list.

2. Zane: that charming baby is stealing my heart more and more every day. He cackles out lous and has an infatuation with Daddy. He looks at Tripp like he is the funniest thing in the world. He began to eat rice cereal and fruit and the first time we gave it to him, he threw it up. And I mean THREW. IT. UP. Don't worry, I got it on video.

3. JK Politician: Tripp just keeps on campaigning for US President in 2044. He loves his teachers (Ms. Abercrombie and Ms. Guess) and seems to love JK at CMDS.

4. Beach trip: I had to travel to Orange Beach, AL for a work trip, so the boys, Tom and Mama Sue drove down to meet me for a mini vacation. The Gulf Coast is open for business and is absolutely beautiful! The weather was nice-- still warm but not so freakin' HOT -- and we stayed in a beautiful condo with a lazy river, pool and slide. The pool was freaking cold. The lazy river was cold, but the pool was FREEZING. We still had a fantastic time! :)

5. Work: boy, work has been absolutely insane. My boss left for a big fancy job in DC at the Hilton HQ (in July) and we've been without a boss for a bit. It has afforded me the opportunity to do some cool things and be a part of some great meetings in his absence, but we are CRAZY BUSY! We also have a new interim boss that we are still learning. As you know, everyone works differently and likes things a certain  way, and we are adapting to it.

6. More work travel: getting ready to go to Orlando for 5 days, then to VA for 4 days. Then some international travel is likely.

7. House stuff: we've talked about it for years, now we are going to do it. We began boxing some stuff up to put our house on the market. It will likely take a long time to sell, but perhaps I will bury a statue in the front yard or whatever it is folks do to see their house quickly.

I'm sure there is more to post, but I can't think of it all right now.
