OK...so I'm taking a little break from what is again a crazy work day to post a few words on here. First, I am so glad that Kara got this up and running. We had talked about doing it for the last 18 months or so, to the point where I actually added it to my to-do list in June of 2009 and it has just sat there in red ever since. Little did I know Kara would be able to put it together in about 5 minutes. That's why I love my wife.
Anyhow, I wanted to comment on Kara's post about our night with my parents and grandparents about 10 days ago. It was indeed very special and not a day goes by that I don't appreciate how lucky I am to have such a wonderful family and 4 amazing grandparents that I get to share my own children with and appreciate in my adult years. So, much thanks to Kara for arranging this special night which was the first of my 34th birthday celebrations. Since then, I've had one other and have one last one coming up this coming weekend. In reality, I really don't care about celebrating my birthday multiple times. Not sure why it always seems to happen though?!?
We just returned from a long, fun trip to Chicago for Thanksgiving, which is where I also got to go out on my actual birthday. It was great to kick off the trip with the night out with Kara, Kristine, Art, Stacy, Rustin, and CA. We saw the highly regarded Talking Heads cover band, This Must Be the Band, and I must say, they were outstanding. I can't wait to see them again. It was great getting to hang in Chicago with my in-laws, meet Elena Ruth Knickerbocker, spend a relaxing Thanksgiving Day at Tommy & Kim's, stay at Davey & Kim's for 3 nights, and go out to dinner with all of Kara's siblings and spouses on Saturday night. So, not only do I feel very lucky for the family I have of my own, but also very lucky to be married into the family that I am.
So, now it's back to work and I am going to try to get in the habit of posting on here with some regularity.
