What Have We Been Up To?

I apologize for the lack of posts this week, we really have no excuse other than work has been busy for both of us. Well, for me at least. The partners at our firm have a huge meeting tomorrow and Friday so my department has been working diligently on various presentations and schedules for the meeting. The meeting is in LA, which unfortunately I am not allowed to attend. Poor Me!!! Matt has been in Schiller Park all week for training. I am not sure what all that entails, but I know outside sources were being brought in for a couple of days and USG folk for the remaining part of the week.

We had a wonderful weekend in Geneva; what a cute little town!! Before the wedding on Saturday, we spent some time walking around downtown Geneva and had lunch at this great little bar, Old Towne Pub (if I am remembering correctly). After lunch we hurried back to The Herrington to beautify ourselves before the wedding. The wedding ceremony was beautiful; Abby looked gorgeous and she and Jeff were all smiles. We then headed St. Charles Country Club for the reception. The room was stunning and the evening so much fun. I know a good time was had by all!!! Because of the time change, Matt and I were up pretty early on Sunday. Matt decided to just lounge and read the paper so that gave me the perfect opportunity to go for a run along the Fox River. The path along the river provided a nice view of the changing fall leaves and the perfect place to enjoy a brisk fall morning. After my run and once everyone was awake and ready to go, we headed over to Egg Harbor for brunch with the Livermore's. The weekend was a perfect little getaway from life in the city. Thank you to Abby and Jeff, the Harris', and Szalerek's for including us in a wonderful weekend.

Our evenings this week have consisted of meetings and running errands, nothing too interesting. Tonight, after dinner, we are heading downstairs to the Diemer's for some homemade apple pie and to visit with everyone in our building. I am really looking forward to some yummy apple pie a la mode!!

Hope everyone is having a good week!
