A Week in Paradise

This last week has been a great break from the office life. Ed and I spent a long weekend at his Dad's place in Key West....thanks Dad and Lori! Then Tuesday to Thursday we were in Miami where I attended all day conferences and Ed continued his vacation on the beach. It was great to take a little time out alone before I can't fly anymore and our little girl joins us. Here are some shots of the good times! The drive to Key West alone the many keys was beautiful. The water was so clear and aqua.

A truly unique way to show off your shell collection, huh?Waiting for the sunset at the pier. It is a tradition that the moment the sun touches the horizon that everyone claps and cheers. Some beautiful sunsets! In Miami, we went out to a fun party one of the vendor's invited me to but unfortunately no bowling for me. It was still a lot of fun.

Blog Slacker...

That is what Ed has been calling me lately.....and I would have to agree. So to do a quick catch up, this is what we have been up to for the last few weeks...


On Labor Day, we labored at our home, pulling weeds and washing cars. We have been getting so much rain which unfortunately means towering weeds. We just have a 12 x12' patio behind our townhouse so it is too small to mow. After our labors, we did head over to the pool to take one last dip before it closed for the year. That was, by far, the best part of the weekend.

Ed has been traveling to and from Philadelphia and working super hard to complete the opening of the Army Experience Center. You can read about it here-http://www.adweek.com/aw/content_display/news/client/e3i4091ce08679099b9660c156258d54d1f
This is just one of the great ideas that he has put into action during his time as the Chief Marketing Officer of the Army. He has also been on film sets for the new commerials, done great things with their website and set in place the first-ever Army marketing plan to check and balance their progress. He truly amazes me in what he is able to accomplish each day.
And we have both been working every night on our 'Mile Long' To Do list as we prepare for this little princess and a new job for Ed. It is still a toss up on which one will come first!
