We are off!!

Well we are off in just a few hours. As you can see we were not able to bring much luggage. One bag each at 50 lbs or under!! 30 days in one suitcase...this should be very interesting. We leave LAX at 7:50pm and land in Heathrow London at 2:15pm Saturday. I just pray my zanax does not wear off OYE!! I will update when we are on the Big Red Bus tour in London. CHAO!

Caper of the month....finally

Steve has been nominated for "Caper of the month" at work for several years and he just brought home the mug of envy. Yes, Mandi there is actually a mug!!

Photo Shoots

I had such an amazing day working with Erin! I feel so blessed to be learning from her =) This morning we went to go meet Ms. Tegan, what a dolly!! Then this afternoon we went over to see Heather and Cody who are here visiting. What a great day!!

Here is the map and the locations of where we are going. I am hoping I can update my blog while I am there, unfortunately I can not add pictures from my blackberry. However I will be uploading some to my fliker account http://www.flickr.com/photos/30825334@N02/

John Alan Wine Dinner

Last night Steve, my parents, and I went to WineStyles to attend the John Alan winery dinner. They were filming the TV show called "Out to Eat" which will be airing on PBS in about 7 weeks. We sat at a table with 2 other great couples! The photo is of one of the other wives (Courtney), the host of the show, and the sales manager of John Alan winery.

Helen

We lost a wonderful family friend today. As some of you know Helen is my dad's best friends wife. She suffered an aneurysm a little over a week ago and remained in a coma ever since her brain surgery. Please say a prayer for the Green family.

It's official we are going to Europe!! We are so excited!! We leave May 8th and will visit England, Belgium, Holland, Germany, Switzerland, Leichtenstein, Austria, Italy, France, Monaco, and Spain. We will be gone for 28 days. What about our zoo you ask? My dad has volunteered to take on the duty :) WOW! I will make sure to leave enough beer to get him through it.
