Fall Is Here!

We have had a wonderful summer!

We took advantage of the nice summer weather by spending a lot of time outdoors. I spent sometime at North Shore Beach Club by the pool on beautiful sunny days, went on a few boat rides on Delaware, Hispanic Festival at Penn's Landing, Wildwood, Atlantic City, Lancaster-Camping-well Cabin Camping...lol, and a lot nice walks in the city enjoying festivals and outdoor events.  Also been enjoying Tuesday nights at Warmdaddy's-All you can eat Crabs and Blues! Also enjoyed a lot of music shows and plays through Fillaseat program this summer.

Jordan is doing so well! He finished 10th grade with a 3.2 gpa. He has been singing at every seasonal concert with School of Rock, and now joined the School of Rock House Band, playing real gigs for the school. I am so proud of him! He has a beautiful voice! He also switched from Jiu Jitsu to Aikido. But we are looking for a new place for him to attend now that we are moving to the east side of the city, near Northern Liberties from the West side of center city. Now he is practicing for his SATs, working on his graduation project, and we are looking into college, tech school, or music school.

We went to see Wizard of Oz Show at The Academy. We also went to Comic Con and Jordan dressed up as an Anime character. Don't ask me who, have no idea how to pronounce the name...lol.  We went to see the Marvel Show at Wells Fargo Center. Very cool stunts!

I have been painting about once a month. I really enjoy it. I think I found a new creative outlet.
Did some serious traveling too these past few months. Went to Miami, South Beach, and Key West, New Orleans, Coney Island and Brooklyn, Orlando-Disney, Las Vegas & Grand Canyon, and Baltimore.

I also got my first tattoo this summer! The OM symbol on my back shoulder. Looks pretty cool! Started salsa dancing again too...love it!

I have also met someone special........enjoying it!

At work I had to take a lower position, with less responsibility, less stress and pressure, but same pay including an annual raise. Worked out well even though it was a very stressful time for me at work. Got through it!

Now we are looking forward to starting anew at our new apartment, and enjoying the fall weather, by slowing down our pace and enjoying the pre-holiday season.
