August in New York City is never easy, the humidity and heat make it a tough one. But there was so much good that came in August that it was impossible for the heat to take us down. Two birthdays, Abby’s birth, Jenn’s promotion, and a Europe trip. Not bad at all.

It wasn’t the month we hoped it would be but like everything in our lives we made the best of it and came out the other side ready for whatever is next.

Not every month goes exactly as you plan it. But even with the changes of a few of our plans this month June ended up being a great start to the summer.

After a busy April, we knew that the craziness wasn’t going to let up in May with two big work trips and my parents visiting from California, it was going to be a jam-packed month.

I cannot imagine a better month than April. Starting with a quick trip to Paris and ending with a week in California, it was a month that I won’t soon forget.

March although a long month felt like it was over in a blink of an eye. Both Jenn and I started the month sick but by the end, we were both on our way to Paris and ready for our first “vacation” since the Maldives in September.
