August 2026 Family Update
August 31, 2026For starters, Ted Lasso is BACK! Let all the fans rejoice. IYKYK. We took a little trip to Blue Ridge, GA with our couple besties to celebrate Jamie graduating from NP school. It was the CUTEST little town and we had a blast. The AirBnB was perfect for our crew, especially with the game room. Lots of ping pong was played and Gracie and I taught the fam how to play Mahjong. Then we celebrated with caviar because we fancy like that! We also did a waterfall hike and did some tubing down the river, which was so much fun!…

January 2026 Update
We rang in the new year with our game night crew, wearing pajamas, and eating grapes under the table. It was perfect! January is usually pretty boring but work is always a little chaotic at the start of the year.…
