Pretty sure this is the most eventful month of my life so far (the cover image is a taste of what is to come…). Get ready!!!
I moved into Manhattan! On July 1 Mama, Papa, and I packed up the car and put my few possessions into the apartment.
I slept on a mattress on the floor and slowly built furniture throughout the month. Full apartment tour will be coming soon after decorations are in place. My goal will be by the end of next month, but we’ll see what happens. Putting a place together is a challenge!
Here’s the view from my stoop. Obsessed.
I wasn’t in the city for very long because the first Wednesday we had a fire in the back yard with Carly and celebrated the start of summer.
July is the month of my favorite holiday: Independence Day. You can read a post about the history here. We went to the Montclair parade, per tradition, and spent the rest of the day at our family friends’ house.
Joe and I went on our annual trip to Peter Luger’s in Brooklyn. It was so so good.
I would go just for the apple strudel and schlog.
I took my first trip for Looker down to Charlotte for a TopGolf event and had a great time talking with clients and practicing my swing.
Last week I headed to Santa Cruz for new hire and sales training. I got my Looker headshot taken and spent time with new work friends.
Now, on to the big news you’ve been waiting for…Joe and I are engaged!!!! It was the perfect day. We had a picnic in Central Park, took a walk, and when we got to the water we spent some time together talking before he got down on one knee and asked me to marry him. Get ready for a bunch of photos because I can’t pick favorites. And let’s all appreciate that Joe and I wear coordinating outfits on a regular basis. All photos are by Joe’s friend, Sean (check out his site!).
The very next day our families came into the city and helped Joe move into the apartment. Such a weekend filled with love and joy. John Adams is proud.
How was your July?!
