Cleveland, Ohio, USA July 6th - July 12th, 2008

Following the wedding festivities, Eric and I headed to Cleveland to spend the week with my family. Thanks to Scott and Sara, we were able to get a lift back to Ohio as they made their way back to New York.

We spent the week catching up with family, playing lots of tennis, golf, and eating really well. It was nice to be back home again and kind of revert back to being a kid. It is tough only seeing the family every once in awhile now, especially as my niece continues to get older and even more fun to spend time with.

I was also able to spend an evening catching up with my childhood friend, Lisa and her boyfriend John. Even though, we don't get to see each other too often anymore, we picked up where we left off the last time we saw each other. Those are the friendships I know I am lucky to have.

The week went by all too quickly and with teeth polished, eyes checked, a new haircut, and plenty of Target treasures, we headed back to London on the red-eye Saturday night.

We had a great trip, and I was reminded once again, how much I love going back to visit 608 Rutland Drive.

Indianapolis, Indiana, USA July 3-6, 2008

There's no place better to celebrate the 4th of July than the land of corn fields and drive-way basketball. We flew back on Thursday night to join a gathering of many of our closest friends who had gathered in Indianapolis for the wedding of Marisa Meyer and Josh Peters.

We met Marisa in New York when she subleased a room in our apartment at Beta West for a summer (of 2004?) At the time she was a friend of Hopwood's from Palo Alto, CA. Marisa and Josh were introduced at our engagement party and the rest is history.

It was an outstanding weekend. We would have traveled twice the distance if necessary in order to attend.
