Nashville

The first weekend in August I went to Nashville (my first time!) with the most fun, hilarious girls ever.  I knew it would be fun, but I had no idea it would be THAT fun.  I laughed until I cried on multiple occasions and am now a gigantic Nashville fan.  Highly recommend!

Richardson Fun

This week back in July I went on a business trip to San Francisco and Portland, and we had a long awaited visit from the Richardsons.  Mom continued to recover from her stem cell transplant and experienced a fever that, due to her lack of immunity, landed her in the hospital and gave us all quite a scare.  Thank God she recovered with antibiotics and continued to improve.  Glad Dad and Kristin were there to help.  

I stayed in Alameda, outside of San Fran, where the Abbott offices are.  My hotel was right on the water.

Bridges were so pretty

On a photo shoot in Portland.  This pic of all the team on their phones during a break was funny.

Later that week we had a great visit with Jenae, Jeremy, River & Lennon who were in town.  Aunt Diane and Justin, Sara, Orrin and Lila also came over.  Love a mid-week party!

Mom lost her hair during the transplant process.  This is her wig.  It looks so great on her!

Mom's gorgeous new car.  Now they will have two cars in FL.

Lake Forest Day comes again.  The years are going so fast!
