Hellllllllo fam.
Glad to see some blog activity. Austin’s Prom was the reigning excitement for a bit there (and rightly so), but alas, time for summer updates!
Speaking of Austin, we’ll need a Spain update when he’s up to the task!
Congratulations to our most recent grad, Miss Chelsea Isaacson. Welcome to the real world. Let me be the 120,303,034,509,384,503,984th person to say that to you.
Looking forward to some family time this summer when possible and while I’m still in the hood.
I will be in Connecticut Friday-Sunday, the weekend of July 25th for party times at Nans and Pops.
This coming weekend, the birthday girl, her baby daddy and me will be on the Cape. Very excited for this, as I missed the Cape entirely last summer. First one I can remember in (maybe forever, but at least) a long time. I plan to eat my way through it, as I’ve done since I was 5. Hello clam strips and lobster roll. Where have you been all my life? Ok, since two summers ago.
Maybe we can plan a trailer park pork barbeque some weekend, too. My parents just cursed me for making work for them. 
Summer tradition!
And FINALLY, if anyone would like to celebrate 400 years of Champlain (or something to that affect… check here: http://celebratechamplain.org/content/view/167/107/), I will be dancing in a piece in the parade on Saturday, July 11th. Fairly short parade, from Union down to Champlain (on Main Street), but all performance based, so it should be a really great time. I’m in rehearsal mode right now and very excited about it. I’ll post videos after the fact for those far away. But those who want to plan for the weekend, there is a whole festival going on with music, dance, etc. so all are welcome to come on up!
Otherwise, I hope everyone is enjoying the summer months. I most certainly am and will have much to update on soon. I’m not ready to report yet, so don’t ask. And DEFINITELY don’t post things on Facebook where my colleagues can see. Gracias!
Which reminds me: I did just spend a GLORIOUS week in paradise (middle-of-no-where Mexico), which is why I missed Chels’ festivities. It was a very needed break and has helped me gain a lot of calm and clarity for the upcoming chapters. I shall leave you with some photos to gaze upon… Viva la swine flu!
