Thankfully I’m back on track after my 4 AM Tuesday morning wake up call. That 6 AM flight is brutal, but it was worth it to have all of Monday at home with my family. When so much of my long weekend home was actually spent in Charleston for Andrew and Lee’s wedding, I really…

A trip home is always wonderful, but when it’s unexpected it’s an extra special treat. I am leaving tonight for a wedding in Charleston and taking a slight detour through Savannah. My brother and sister in law are also going to the wedding so we’re able to hop in their backseat for the two hour…

I was supposed to go out of town this weekend but my mini trip was cancelled. Does this change of plans upset me? Not in the slightest. After a trip to DC last weekend and visitors the weekend before, I am looking forward to a more relaxing three nights in my apartment. I am NOT…

I’m excited to be sandwiched between two great weekends. I am fresh off a visit from Mark and Allison and leaving tomorrow for DC to visit Sliz. Obviously I’m most excited to have some quality time with my college bestie but this trip is also exciting because I’ll get to see what it’s like to…

What makes me happier than reminiscing about the great time I had when my Mom was here two weeks ago? Nada. Here are a few more highlights from our weekend: Two weeks ago we had a crazy heat wave but, being New Yorkers, didn’t have the luxury of getting into an air conditioned car when…
