My trip to Connecticut
As many of you know, my dad brought me home for a surprise visit for mothers day, and for my sisters graduation from law school. I was home for almost 2 weeks and had a wonderful time seeing my family and friends. My sisters graduation went wonderfully, the smarty pants graduated cum laude! Karin and Adam have since then sold their house and are road tripping to Idaho to start their new life. I also got to see my friend Lauren and her new litle baby Ryan, my friend Ana and her new little baby Enrique, my friend Jaime and her 14 month old baby Julia, and my friend Janet and her 7 1/2 month old baby Ella. Cara, Joel, and I stopped in Philly for a short visit, and Janet and Alan had prepared an awesome picnic for all of us. It was fabulous seeing everyone, including my friends Laurie and John who were also there!! Some upcoming plans that Steve and I have are my parents are coming in a few weeks for a 3 week visit and my sister is coming in August for a visit as well. Here are some pics from the visit…

I am so jealous of everyone in CT,DC & PA because you got to see Lisa and we didn’t! Lisa, was Steve afraid to let you come shopping with me in Atlanta?
Karin – Congratulations on your law degree. We’re all very excited for you.
Tom & Bernadette – have a wonderful time in Peru and Chile next month.

Hey Lisa,
I’m not sure if Lauren told you, but we got the blanket. It’s great. Thanks so much! Hope you guys had fun in Machu Piccu, or Picachu, or whatever.
