Update

Hey girlies! Long time, no hear. Anyway, I know that not having access to the internet for a couple of days is not an excuse...but...well, I am sorry. So, how were both of your holidays? I hope you both enjoyed them just as much as I did.

So, I went home for the 4th to celebrate my sister's b-day. We went to Disney World. I had a great time. Stephie and I were able to visit all of the parks including Animal Kingdom, which isn't half bad. On our last day in Orlando, we went to Epcot, which would not have been much fun had we not scoped out the shop at Japan. On top of everything that we did, we went to a place recommended by Rachel Ray...the Colorado Fondue Company (my mom is a huge fan of Rachel Ray). As for my critique of the restaurant - Melting Pot is much, much better. So, that is my week home in a nutshell.

As for my mom, she is handling chemo really well, except for the fact that her stomach hurts. She is still incredibly skinny (i.e.- 80 pounds), but she's been able to eat a lot more. She's definitely hanging in there. On a similar note, I have faith that your (Katie's) grandfather will pull through the surgery.

As for everything else going on in my life, not much has changed. I will be going home again, for two weeks, on August 5th. I am excited to take a break from work and dc...its about damn time (believe me, one week home is not enough).

Today I am going swimming again at Mrs. Kennedy's house. It should be fun. Well, I will post later with more interesting things to talk about, but I thought I should give you both a brief update on my happenings.

P.S. Today will be my 3rd time restarting my dress....what can I say...I'm a perfectionist.
