Whew! What a crazy couple of weeks. We have moved out of our old house, into a temporary house, and now are finally in our new house. While I feel like I’ll probably be unpacking for the rest of my natural life, we are so excited to finally be in our new home. Throw in…

On my trip to Manila earlier this summer I had some power problems. First, I forgot the plug for my phone and had to charge it through my laptop USB the whole trip. Then I had a hard time finding a plug at the office for my computer, which died during a presentation (SO embarrassing).…
I hope you all had a very happy Labor Day! We have had a whirlwind couple of weeks in the Road Warriorette household. My sisters and their families were in town for almost a week, and the Mini Warrior had his first birthday party. Today, the movers are coming to move us out of our…
