When I last talked to you guys I was on my way to Fire Island for a long weekend with my family.

Painting the fence before heading to the beach.

Now, I am blogging from Minnesota!

Rob and I left my parents house for a short road trip to Rob’s parents house in Minnesota. For a three day trip, there was a lot of excitement:

First trip to McDonald’s after living in Vietnam,

We felt ill for the rest of the afternoon.

Teaching interviews at the Chicago Public Library (we had to Skype),

Gorgeous library, great study room.

Some serious storm fronts,

Rob drove in the rain. It was blinding even with the wipers on turbo!

Counting license plates (sorry about the blurriness),

We made it to 42.

First Coors Light since getting back!,

Yum.

Loving the welcome home / engagement sign when we landed in Minnesota.

Thank you, Marie!

Now that wedding planning has calmed down a bit, I should be getting back to a more regular blog posting / reading schedule. Thanks for sticking with me through the past few crazy weeks!

RQ: How do you entertain yourself on long drives? Anyone else count license plates?
