Coral Springs - bring it on!

Happy Memorial Day Weekend!  Let's bring things up to date... my wife and I moved to Coral Springs recently and set up shop here.  We like it and continue to get used to life in suburbia.  The dogs like it too - Lilly is in heaven because everyday she can run in the grass and Barks doesn't have to climb stairs... he supervises the backyard area and keeps all the burglars away.  So far we haven't "had the time" to miss the beach, but we do notice that traffic driving to and from the beach area is exhausting!  Many housing projects have been completed (all new doors and windows, roof, water heater, a/c unit, alarm system, remodeling bathrooms and kitchens, fence around yard, landscaping and pool stuff, etc.).  Excited and exhausting at the same time.  Home depot loves me...actually just my credit card.  I will be spending my Memorial Day weekend with a paint brush in hand...working, both on the house and catching up with business work.

We are pleased to also have welcomed a new niece and nephew to the family!  Br-arman had baby Alexandra in early April, and Mar-leen had baby Dylan about a week after that.  Babies are sooo small it's crazy.  Both seem to enjoy their Uncle B and Auntie - who can blame them! The Sembrots visited from PA and brought their latest addition Madeline, who was learning to crawl.

Other than kids and house stuff, it was all about PROM.  We held our 5th annual prom in Ft Lauderdale for kids with cancer a few weeks ago, and we are gearing up for our first prom in Boston in 2 weeks!  It's definitely exiting to see this charity grow.  I was up in Boston twice in the past month - once for Prom reasons and the other for business meetings.

Life is certainly different than it was 10 years ago, 20 years ago, 30 years ago.  I often wish I had some time to reflect on what those differences are, but with so much coming at me, I might have 30 seconds at a red light to think about it.  Perhaps when it is 30 years from today - I will look back at this post and have NO IDEA how much life will change in the next 30 years.  I welcome it, and look forward to it.  Why wouldn't I?

I just need to post more frequently...because these 21 sentences that I just typed (and counted, kind of) don't even scratch the surface of what my experiences have been over the past 21 weeks since my last post!
