Getting ready for Paris

We leave for Paris in 6 days! While I feel less organized for this trip than any in the past (due to less me time), we have all of the major items all lined up.


Babysitter for Kaitlyn, check.
Flights, hotels, rental car reservations, check.
International cell phone (emergencies only!!!), check.
A new set of eyes, check. That's right...I got LASIK surgery about a week and a half ago. I now can leave my glasses, contacts, solution, etc all at home!

Just 1 more Target run and we'll be set. We will for sure need to run through our Rick Steves' tour books on the flight over there!

Gabby's Wedding

We went up to the OC last Saturday to celebrate James and Gabby's wedding. It was both a beautiful ceremony and reception. It was great to see some old friends from college as well as be out for a night with Sam. We left Kaitlyn with my parents who were down for the long weekend.


Note: Allison is pictured on her "good side"


It's not too often we get all dressed up these days
