Mid Summer Fun

Summer seems to be flying by. This past week I took Janie up to Chicago with me. Thursday was our normal monthly sales meeting, but Friday I worked the AVP Pro Beach Volleyball tournament. Paul Mitchell is a sponsor and there for we had a booth to man at the tournament. Janie brought a friend with her and by the photos they took on my camera they fully enjoyed watching the mens tournaments. As Janie put them “the hotties with the bodies”. It is a very fun experience. Especially for the girls, although Janie has been to the city many times, it was her friend Jessica’s first time. Obviously to be able to walk down Lake Shore drive along the “bike pad” to the Oak Street Beach and then to be able to have that great skyline of the city on one side and the lake on the other along with beach volleyball is pretty cool. Part of us having the booth was that our Paul Mitchell top stylists and educators were cutting hair for charity there so for my $20 donation Jessica was able to get her hair cut by a Paul Mitchell professional (something that would have cost $80 alone in the city).
Ridge is still working and enjoying the summer. He is driving a motorcycle at the moment and has gone through my Dad’s clothing for some Harley items. I got a little misty eyed seeing him one evening in a thermal Harley shirt my Dad used to wear and then having my Dad’s leather jacket on. I hope Dad is smiling a bit at that.
Garrett has finished up with baseball and has been swimming in either my pool or over at his Dad’s parents pool most of the summer. White hair and dark skin with those big blue eyes…such a cutie!!
Jeff and I are leaving for Rend Lake on Wednesday to spend four days doing nothing but laying by the pool, the beach or maybe we might do some boating. The plan is to do nothing! I would have liked to have stayed Saturday night as well but he is playing a gig at Bagelfest in Mattoon that evening so we have to be back. I am hoping to drag some of my friends out that evening, but we will see.
