On Friday, I left work an hour early, got stuck in traffic anyway, finally picked Rob up in northern Virginia four and a half hours later, and then we drove five more hours to Tarrytown, New York. 

We got to the hotel and passed out and then Sean ran the next afternoon, thereby finishing four years of college cross-country. We explored the village, ate some of the largest portions of Greek food I've ever seen, drank espresso, and went back to the hotel to nap. With the best intentions, we headed to the train station to catch a ride into New York City, but it was $100 for four of us to get there and back and we didn't actually have any plans. So we went to a bar and had a drink.

I didn't take one good picture of Rob, it felt like we were only in town for twenty minutes, and we drove more than sixteen hours to get there and back, but I'm so glad we went. Road trips really are the best, even when they're not.

I love hearing from you!

Well, what do you think?

[BEFORE]

I actually really loved (and still love--looking at this photo is making me a little nostalgic!) the old design, but I've had it since April of 2011, and I felt like it was time for something new. But because I'm not so good at dealing with change, I stuck with the design genius of Kelly Ann and insisted that we at least keep the lace at the top and the general color scheme.

It's all about compromise, you know.

But in all seriousness, I'm in love with the new design and I am feeling a new wave of inspiration just from looking at it, which is exactly what I was hoping for.

(Now if you'll just bear with me while I figure out my new ad space sizes!)
