Officially in the TEENS!!!!

Wow where has time gone?  Today was 18 days till we head home to KY.  I am mostly excited about this move.  However there is a lot I am going to miss.  Take this week for example.  I am on the road all week for work but since there isn't much for Kenny to do at home he came along for the ride also because it would be a really long week if I had to do it alone...but we are heading to Boston tomorrow so after work we will be able to tour our favorite city for the last time in a while.  I am super stoked to hit up my two favorite restaurants one more time though.  The Boston Sail Loft and Giacomos.  Let me just start by saying WOW for both of these places.  Both places are literally holes in the wall but they both are by far some of the best food I have ever had for decent prices.  Giacomos (hopefully I am spelling this correctly) ALWAYS has a wait around the block to get in, which kind of stinks but it is well worth it.  The sail loft however is a fun bar hang out but it is a little shack right on the harbor so you can eat your fish and chips and watch the fishes swim too!!  By far the freshest fish and chips I have ever had.  Ok that is enough excitement about Boston cause my trip gets even better.  We also get to go to Portland and eat at our favorite pizza place Otto's.....mmmmm margherita pizza ::drooling:: Then from Portland we are heading up to Bar Harbor for the weekend.  Just going to do one day and one night unfortunately but it should still be fun.  I am hoping to go hiking all day and take some GORGEOUS fall pictures.  Apparently Maine is perfect this time of year.  Anyways back to what I will miss about being up here.  My job has allowed me to see parts of the world I would have otherwise never got the chance to visit.  I mean I can't believe I have favorite restaurants in parts of the country I used to only dream of getting to visit.   That is just crazy to me. 

I came to a proud moment for myself about a month ago.  I was sitting in a cafe in NYC and I was having lunch after just giving a presentation about our fans.  I started thinking and was like if you would have asked me when I was in highschool if I EVER thought I would be giving presentations in NYC or traveling the whole north coast I would have said....yea right.  I just can't believe I am only 26 and I can not only drive through NYC in a car but I can also navigate the city without much use of a GPS.  I have seen broadway shows, Niagra Falls, Fenway games, toured Vineyards out in Longisland, swam in the ocean, played in the sand for a whole summer, shopped at some of the coolest places, walked the streets of Boston, eaten some of the best food in my life, and seen some of the prettiest sites I could have ever imagined all within a short year.  That just baffles me, no wonder I am exhausted all the time.  I definitely do not regret this experience at all and would do it all over again in a heartbeat.  However I have seen enough of the world to hold me over for a while and now I am just ready to curl up on my couch with my two pups, have a fire in the fire place, have my family over for dinner, and hang out with my besties and of course their awesome and amazing children.. It is time to go back to my roots and settle in.  So NORTHEAST you will be missed but I am ready to go HOME!!!
