Too busy to post!! Updates!

Hey guys!

I've been too busy to post...I haven't been blogging in awhile! Between the spa and the growing (!) consulting business and the other new business ventures, I'm slammed! It's been a parade of meetings and networking, clients and projects etc.

Plus we're trying to stay really active going out and meeting other couples. There have been wine tastings, parties, new restaurants, etc. I'll try to remember to post on here when we find something fun! There is a new wine bar in McKinney called Zin Zen that I am dying to try. Cute name, and Zin is my fav!! (Gnarly Head is the best) We also found out about this place called Tijuana in Uptown and on Monday nights they have lobster or prime rib with sides and soup also served with a yummy Chilean wine for under $10!!!! What a deal. And, Zea Woodfire Grill here in Frisco is pretty good...we had a big meeting there and it wasn't bad.

And girls, I had a blast on Friday...that wine party was way too fun...I had no idea we'd be up that late...LOL. It's like a throw back to the slumber party at the Anatole!

Madeline has turned 1!! Can you believe it? What a cutie! Our Isabella is 10 weeks old now and cute as can be!! Darby and Zoe have really warmed up even more and Darby and Bella are best friends...its too cute.

I've been doing some shopping lately too (in all the "spare" time LOL) and I had a great "Ross day" the other day. You never know about Ross, but sometimes it's amazing! I got some fabulous iron and a gorgeous mirror and wall clock- REALLY amazing stuff for SO cheap! Love that. (I am redoing our guest bath-again!) I found the most adorable Nicole Miller shower curtain and that inspired the whole re-do.

M and I are doing great, about to celebrate 8 months! We've booked our tickets to PA for January, we are staying in town for Thanksgiving and Christmas this year since we were gone all last year. I can't believe Thanksgiving is almost just a week away!! I have shopping to do for Christmas, although I have finished our Christmas cards, just have to stamp and send out the first week of December.

Tomorrow is the big corporate event (150 people!) and I am looking forward to that. Toby, thanks for all your help in getting that organized! Donna and Lisa, ya'll too! I had fun at LaMadeline with ya'll...LOL :)

Michelle, my hair is too cute...you did a great job...thanks! And I love those new products :) I've been meaning to write that for a couple weeks now!

Hope everyone is doing great...we'll talk to ya soon...hugs :)

Home Sweet Home

We're back from our trip to Lake Tahoe and it was a lot of fun! We left on Sunday and stayed through Thursday. We were supposed to leave Friday, but decided to come home due to several things- our alarm going off, tons of work to do, and having seen all there was to see in Tahoe! (in the off season) We were very adventurous and got up early every day to explore all we could. We even drove around the whole lake in one day (72 miles, plus hiking, sightseeing, shopping, etc) 72 miles doesn't seem like a lot, but on mountain roads-it is! Took about 6 hours...so pretty!

So- I can't wait to get our pictures up- Tahoe is GORGEOUS! We had a blast driving around the lake and hiking (A LOT!!), a bit of rock climbing (nothing too serious!), snuggling by the fire in our condo and drinking homemade hot cocoa. It was the perfect getaway! This was the off-season in Tahoe, so a lot of places were closed, especially ski-related places. We did not go to ski, we went for the scenery and for some "couple time". We definitely got all that! The lake is one of the prettiest places I've ever seen. It's SO blue, like a sapphire, and the mountains, trees, winding roads, crashing waves against rocks, and small mountain towns were just SO charming! I highly recommend everyone go!

Getting away is nice, but we're glad to be back home. I love the home we've made and it's always so nice to come back and be with our babies too!
