Turkey Day in DC

Well, its finally here! I woke up this morning in a hotel room over looking Pennsylvania Avenue!! I can see the Jefferson Memorial, Post Office, Lincoln Memorial, and Washington Monument. It is FABULOUS! We have a fun few days plan of catching up with old friends, doing tourist things we never did when we lived her, obviously hitting up H&M (hopefully I will have better luck than I did in Vancouver this summer...and as you can guess, Greg is thrilled!), stopping by the old office, and eating at our favorite restaurants.

We had a funny (I guess thats what you can call it??) experience last night on our flight. DISCLAIMER...WEAK STOMACHS STOP READING NOW. The woman behind us loudly asks the flight attendent (before take off I mind you) "Can I have a bigger barf bag because I throw up ALOT. I want one of those big plastic bags." MMMM, the look on the flight attendents face and Gregs was PRICELESS. Fortunately we were able to the last row because girlfriend barfed ALOT. Sick. Talk about top 10 things you don't want to hear before take off....

Hope you all have a blessed Turkey Day. I will try to be updating with our Washington Adventures, but we know how that normally goes....

I'm BAAAAAACK!!

After a month long hiatus I am back for the meanwhile. Work is a zoo so my blogging time is CERTAINLY less than it was back during those SLOOOOOOW summer days.

Heres whats been going on with me---
- I went to Baton Rouge for the LSU Florida game (realized that Bogies is actually just one large fire hazard and was sad to watch the Tigers lose)
- Spent several weekends at work events
- I lost my grandfather, Pop. Pop was 92 and had an absolutely amazing life, but it was still very sad. My sisters and I were lucky enough to get to speak about Pop at his funeral-- which was tough but also very rewarding.
- We spent Halloween handing out candy with Lizzie, Charlie, and Meg at Lizzie and Charlie's house. Best costume definently was the little kid dressed up as laundry.
- We celebrated Mom's 50th birthday last week and surprised her with a trip to Punta Mita, Mexico. It was amazing!!!




Work is busy but THANKFULLY Thanksgiving is around the corner. Greg and I are thrilled to be spending the week in Washington, DC...neither of us has been since we left and we are SO excited!!! We are also headed to Oxford to watch the Tigers play. After that, it will be Christmas decorations time-- YAHOO!!

I promise I will attempt to write more....
