Well wishes to everyone! Happy Sunday, and hears to a good week ahead!
July 25th is a very important day…
Last summer, on July 25th, we were in France to celebrate Matt and Natalie’s wedding. One year later, warm wishes and congratulations to the happy couple!
Two summers ago, on July 25th, Jared met me outside of the Boston Public Library and we went on our first date, out to dinner in the South End. Two years later, he is still by my side. I’m so grateful to have him in my life! Hugs and kisses to my boyfriend!
Approximately 30 summers ago 
, on July 25th, my mom was born. She knows me better than anyone else in this world and I couldn’t survive without her. Looking young and beautiful as ever, Happy Birthday to my amazing mom!
(Happy Birthday to my cousin Pat too. Not sure if he reads the blog, but I know his sisters are avid fans.)
My life is JAM PACKED for the next month. I hope to write a few “normal” blog posts this week, with a focus on food, exercise, and marathon training. I’ll be busy getting ready to go to New York for another wedding. This time Jared’s brother is getting married and Jared is serving as the best man.
