I am sorry for being such a bad blogger. We are getting ready for our trip to Ireland and London. We are very excited! I will be posting pictures when we are gone if I have Internet access. Otherwise, I will have a long update and several photos when I return! Marvin (Chad's good friend and business partner) will be house sitting and watching Rhyme and Tempest for us. THANKS MARVIN!!!

Brandon's benefit was this weekend. It went really well. I wasn't able to make it but my Mom and Sister tell me that between 250 and 300 people showed up. That is great! My Mom won the 50/50 drawing which gave her $192!!! She gave $100 in cash to Brandon and spent the rest on other items at the benefit. Brandon wasn't able to go because his immune system is so low but he appreciated it all.

Chad and I have both received cortisone shots in our backs. I thought mine was working but Terry and Cheri visited this weekend. Cheri and I did a lot of shopping and my back started hurting after about an hour. I was bummed that it didn't work. I also had an allergic reaction to the shot. I had facial flushing. My face would turn super red and get really hot for several hours but my body temperature was normal. It was strange. Chad just had his shot on Friday and he is starting to feel pretty good so far.

Work is going really well. I still love my new job. The summer interns start while I am in Ireland. I am bummed that I am going to miss the big kick off. However, I am not about to skip my trip! :)

I also promised to share some pics from Gio and Genny's wedding. They make such a cute couple. Cheers to Giovanni and Genevieve!
