Two days to go!


My last week of work for the bank is here. I will finish up on Tuesday. The past three months have flown by! It is hard to believe it is coming to a close. I am grateful for God's perfect timing this week. I finish up on Tuesday and Sarah L flies in Wednesday morning! It will be great to spend time with her free of my Blackberry and laptop. We have a few things planned including trying to catch a theater that has the early release of Becoming Jane. The movie is loosely based on Jane Austen's early years. I am sure Hal is extremely excited that Sarah will be here to go with me!

Home at Last!


Hal and I are both back in Houston for a few weeks. We spent the week of the 4th of July near Gatlinburg, Tennessee with Hal's parents and his brother and his family. We shopped, rode go-karts, played mini golf, went to Dollywood, walked around Gatlinburg, and much more! I won the Ramsey mini golf tournament. :) We also got totally hooked on Guitar Hero on the XBox 360. I think we spent a good portion of our vacation playing it....we even went and bought an adapter when we couldn't get it to work in our hotel room! It was a great week with family!
Last week I was off to Fayetteville for my last week in the bank and Hal was in Milwaukee. I will be finishing up my time with the bank on July 31st. I am looking forward to less hectic days! I have been compiling a "Things to do when I am done with the bank" list. The first item of business will be hanging out with Sarah L when she comes to visit on August 1st.
