The Biggest Terp Fan

Is Chaz Packan. His enthusiasm is unmatched and infectious. Last night I took him to the Lady Terps vs North Carolina. The game was a blowout and Chaz sat alongside of me with his classic play by play... He knew every player from both teams and kept up with statistics throughout the game. His mind amazes me. After the game we met the players and Coach Frese who all remembered him from last years Duke game. But I think the highlight for him was when the game commentators took notice of him and told him the would save him a seat next to them next time they come to Comcast. He was beyond thrilled. We had a great night just the two of us laughing all throughout the night and on the car ride home. I'm lucky to have him in my life. Spending time with him is a gift - it puts so much in perspective.

State Circle

Today Mike and I made the trek to Annapolis to cover the Maryland General Assembly. We were oping to be a part of the historic senate vote on the marriage equality bill but it was delayed until tomorrow. No problem... We still got our story and a great sandwich at the famous Chick and Ruth's.

A Tiny Visitor

Today a co worker brought in his beautiful baby daughter Reese. I happily volunteered to hold her while he recorded voiceovers. She was as good as gold and smiled beautifully after she got over her initial fear of me. It's been so long since I've held a new baby - but as adorable as she was - I was thankful she was theirs.

Patience

Is what I am trying to master. I have waited for several years for Steve to finish the laundry room. I think I must have shamed him into it somehow... It must have been when I said only 3 and a half years until the twins go to college and after that it won't be as useful. Who knows I'm just happy it's finally getting done. After pictures to follow very soon I hope.

Getting Inspired

I was feeling inspired to create a new piece of jewelry today and this is what I came up with...now I am on the lookout for vintage spoons - just what I need a new obsession.

More Basketball

Can't get enough of it....we arranged for Claudia's team to go see the Lady Terps play Miami yesterday. Great game,(even though they lost) great fun, and the girls were invited to a party after the game and were able to meet Brenda and some of the players. Even Erik and Big Anthony enjoyed it. Great bunch of girls and a really fun day.

The Last Day

Erik and Claudia have wrapped up their freshman basketball seasons. Tuesday was the last game, and most likely the last day I will see them dress up like this for school this year.
