It seems I am always playing catch-up on this blog. I am so very behind in sharing our activities from this Fall…

In September we went down to San Diego area to see my friend Liz during her last Summer session at the Del Mar Racetrack. We had a good time watching horses race and betting in our heads. Luckily we did not bet any real money because we didn’t do that well in picking the winners. I am seduced by cool horse names, or how the horse looks, which I learned is not the way to decide.

Sadly I did not take any photos of Liz (duh!), but she took some photos of us…

She also helped us win a million dollars! (or look like we did…)

Thank you, Liz for a fun day and for letting stay overnight at your house!

In early October I went to work in NYC for ten days. Look at the beautiful view from my airplane window…

I was able to visit with my cousin and her two cute boys, which was nice…

I also had the chance to fly up to Rochester, NY to visit with my Grandma on my days off, which was fabulous! She turned 99 in September and is doing great. It was fun to catch up with her. If we look a little tired in this photo, it’s because it was early in the morning; please excuse us…

I asked my Grandma to direct me to see the house where my Dad grew up, which was cool. Grandma said there were only a few changes, at least from what we could see on the outside…

We also drove by my Dad’s high school and grammar school. I liked seeing places from my Dad’s history!

I was able to catch up with my Uncles over dinner, which was fantastic because I never get to see them, let alone hang out with them for any period of time…

Back in NYC, I finished up a Teacher Training session and was proud to graduate 10 amazing new Teachers! Can’t you see how awesome they are by how much they glow?

All in all, I had a good trip to New York – work, pleasure and all…

Then, my friend Lindsey came for a visit during the last weekend of October and we had a great time talking, sharing and being lazy. We even took naps, like only great friends can do without feeling bad about it. This is the only photo I have of our time together; I think we are cute…

And that brings us current! Happy November!
