Finally climbed back onto the earth!

Hello all my lovely ladies!

It appears I did in fact fall of the face of the earth! I was just crazy busy with ski school at the end of the season, working a lot of extra days and finishing up. Then I was actually in PA for a few days getting my summer clothes. When I got back we had closing weekend on the mtn. which was AMAZING! Picture Preakness, but at the top of Vail Mountain and you have to ski down afterwards. I wasn't quite as drunk as I get at Preakness, but enough so. They had cops up there with snowcats in case anyone felt they were too intoxicated to ski down, they could get a ride. It was definitely a fun day. Now the mountain is closed and I'm anxiously awaiting spring/summer...which does not seem to coming (it snowed yesterday!!!). The past week I've been in Cali. Andy came out with me for last weekend and got to meet my whole family. They all absolutely LOVE him! My nana told my mom "I hope they don't have too long of an engagement...oh wait, they're not engaged yet". My dad told me he thought the reason we were coming was to make an "announcement". But yea, all in all it went really well and we had a lot of fun. Next Saturday Andy and I leave for Kauai for a week, which I am SOOOOO excited for! The first three nights we're staying at the Princeville and the last 4 we're staying at this 8 bedroom mansion on the beach that someone with his company owns...I may not come home haha! Then it's time to figure out what I'll be doing for work this summer. I'm going to try to plan a trip home/to MD, I just don't know when yet. I have to figure out my job/money situation first. I'll definitely keep you posted though. And of course, if anyone wants to come here...;-). Vail really is the best in the summer.

I hope you are all doing well too. Kathy, congrats on the upcoming graduation! I wish I could be there! I bet it feels good to know you're almost done. Meg, how is the new car treating you? I'm pretty jealous about that! And New, since you are clearly getting bored with online shopping, you should start to look for plane tickets for you and your man to come here!!! I think it's a great plan. Emily, are you alive? What the heck have you been up to? I miss you all more than I can tell you. I was out in Denver for the baseball game a couple weeks ago, and then a group went to a karaoke bar and they kept playing all our songs, and I literally started tearing up. I'm pretty sure Andy thought I was insane until I could finally tell him why I was getting so sad! Well I think that about sums it up for now! I love and miss you guys! Talk to you soon!
