... and we're back

It was definitely not my intention to take a four month hiatus from the blog. However, it happened like this:

...my company had a great year which meant everyone was slammed with work.
...my brother got married AND my mom turned 50 in the same week.
...I started a grad school program which is full time while trying to also continue to work full time.
...other life stuff continued to happen despite my best efforts to ignore some of it. (The house still won't clean itself)

All of that combined with just not feeling terribly interesting lead to this extended break. Admittedly, I missed a lot - some of which I'll try to catch up on. We had our first anniversary. My brother did get married. We went to the beach for a week only to be interrupted by a hurricane.

While I make no promises that I'm going to be good about keeping this updated regularly, I'll try not to go another four months before posting. After all, that whole full-time employee while being a full-time student thing tends to eat into a lot of my spare time.

To make this not boring with only words, here's a picture of Will and me with a firework exploding behind our heads on July 4th at Fort Myer overlooking DC.
