Work Hard, Play Harder
It's been a crazy few weeks of work, separated only by weekends packed with lots of friends and fun. Occasionally I even manage to work in a couple of hours of sleep. Jackson is not happy with the pace I'm keeping; every time I leave he asks if I'm going to work and if the answer is yes, he says "Aww, man!"
In the past few weeks I've turned 33, seen Brad Paisley in concert, attended every Memorial Day cookout within a 40 mile radius, taken in a Nats game, and completed my fourth Komen race as a survivor. Even though we had a smaller team this year, we still raised $4100, bringing our total to over $16K. Thanks to everyone that supported us!
The next few weeks won't be any less crazy than the past few. The Great Wedding Tour of 2010 resumes this weekend with a trip to New Orleans and then a side trip to Biloxi. Next weekend the tour stops in Charlottesville for wedding #3 and the following weekend Jackson turns 3! He's having a dinosaur party, but at last check he said I wasn't allowed to go. I guess that means no presents.
About this time three years ago, this picture was taken.
It's one of my favorite pictures for a bunch of reasons, but I'll spare you that explanation. So when this picture was taken a few weeks ago, I thought it made a great comparison.
A lot's changed in three years! Same sweater, different baby. And Jackson and I both have hair!
