Remember when I promised that I'd do better at keeping up with my blogging. Well, clearly I've not been a woman of my word. Life has been a whirlwind this summer! I honestly can't believe we're quickly approaching September. Where did the summer go?
Alas, here we are! We survived my two weeks away at grad school in Minnesota. It was rough on all of us. I cried a LOT and missed Martin and Grace like crazy. Thank God for Skype video chat, which allowed me to see and talk to my wonderful family everyday. We all made it through, and I am even more convinced that Martin is the best Daddy in the world. He handled two weeks of single parenthood like a pro :-) So now I'm two papers and one online class away from completing my 2nd Master's degree, this one in Philanthropy and Development. Woohoo!!!
In other news, we had an AWESOME visit with Martin's friend, Ollie, from England in early June. You'll find some great pics from his visit in our June online photo album: http://picasaweb.google.com/amberfogarty/TheFogartyFamilyJune2009#. You can also scope out You Tube videos from one of his living room concerts at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ejbyzg88zQQ and http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iTtfXi11uUU. Good times! We took a fun day trip to San Antonio, and Grace loved the boat ride on the Riverwalk.
All in all, it's been quite a summer! The heat has been unreal...we're just a few 100+ days away from this being the HOTTEST summer EVER in Austin! Needless to say, we're ready for the beautiful fall weather :-)
That's all for now, friends! Stay tuned, and I'll try to do better about blogging in the months to come.
