Aaaaand....We're Off!

The day has finally come for us to see our dear friend, Marshall Bee, get married! We'll be attending his wedding on Saturday in lovely Birmingham, AL. We'll also be staying in town for a few days to catch up with some friends and for me to actually meet my boss in person. That's right, after I moved, I got a new boss who I've never actually met. It should be a blast.

So today, after waking up to a world of winter white, meaning 2-4 inches of SNOW, we've rushed around trying to get the house clean for an easy return, things purchased at various stores to make that happen, get the family laundry done, family bags packed, Maple taken care of and everything else to make this an "easy" trip.

Moral of the story?
Nothing's easy when you have a baby and dog. But that doesn't necessarily make it not worth it.

Anyway, we're turning our eyes to the sunny skies of Birmingham and lamenting the fact that the weather forecast predicts rain for all the days we'll be there. Regardless, it will be a city without snow and maybe we'll even catch a wicked thunderstorm-something I've been hoping for for a while.

So goodbye cold wetness, hello warm wetness. Save us a spot, we're on our way to... the Magic City!
(and yes, that is a jab at Birmingham's motto...there are like seven other cities called "The Magic City." Could we not be more original?!) Lovely Birmingham, Alabama. (or as I prefer to say, "ab-a-la-ma" just try it. you'll love it)
