Well friends, Chris will be on the road again in just a few days. He is heading to Hot Springs, Arkansas for 2 weeks to experience a great music festival opportunity! This is his first music festival and thankfully is going for free minus meals & travel, yay!

We've been enjoying our "staycation" over the long holiday weekend. Yesterday we went to the Old Barn General Store in Lexington, SC to listen to some jazz & blues music outdoors, then played some tennis, grilled out hotdogs, and watched a movie. Today we enjoyed shopping around with a good friend of ours. It's been nice to get some QT together.

Due to high cholesterol and an increase in the digits shown on the scales these days, we've been trying to find ways to increase our activity level and get the heart rate going. We live in an awesome neighborhood (which I am so going to miss!). Every morning & evening people are jogging and biking. Not even 1 mile from our house we have several parks with tennis courts. This week I had been cleaning out and noticed my racquets on a high shelf. I suggested to Chris we hit around. We had the best time! That night, we went and bought Chris his first racquet (a Federer Target special... woo woo). And then many of you know Chris is an all or nothing guy, so we went to Todd & Moore (my former tennis head quater's stomping ground) and bought the 2 cheapest pairs of nice Wilson court shoes. Ever since, we've been having such a great blast together.

Overall, we've just been working and slowly getting things ready for the big move and transition time. No major changes or updates which is why we haven't blogged in so long. We'll keep you all posted when there is more to post about.
