19 days and counting..

Until Jarod and I sail away for a long vacation!! We can hardly wait. We are taking a 12 day cruise to the Mediterranean and visiting Rome, Naples, Dubrovnik, Venice, Messina, Monoco, Livorno, and Barcelona. Most of you know last time this year we were communiting to and from Richmond as we relocated back to DC. Thinking back we haven't had a vacation in 2 years. That is way to long!!! :)

Needless to say we are really excited. I can't wait to post pictures when we get back. I'm sure we'll have some great ones.

One of the fun things about it only being 19 days until we leave is all of the fun stuff we are doing between now and then. For example, this weekend Jarod's family and Baby Anna are coming down to visit. (yeah!! we haven't seen Anna in months!!) We are really looking forward to seeing them and spending time with them this weekend. I think the guys are going to be doing a golf trip and the girls will probably do some shopping and maybe visit some of the museums.

Next weekend we are going to a National's game on Friday with a bunch of people and Saturday we are taking advantage of DC's restaurant week... if you live in the DC area, you should check it out. High end restaurants participate and dinners only cost $35.00/person. http://www.washington.org/restaurantwk/ And I have to get my scrapbooking caught up, so I'll be doing that as well.

I am still in training for the 10 miler and triathalon, so the weekends are also full of long bike rides and long runs. I recently recruited another person, Jenny, for the Tri so I have other people to train with as well which is always fun. My friend Becci is trying to get me to do 2 10 milers back to back so we'll see if that works out... I'll be one tired girl!

Tell all the Blaney's we said "hello" and give baby Anna a squeeze from me. We hope you have lots of fun this weekend.
