The Newest Hampshire

Hey all. Just got home after a long day and had a text from Nate that I'd better not forget to do my blog post. Come on, hermano. Like I'd forget?

I think we've all sufficiently complimented each other and ourselves about what a great family we are, so I'll just give you a quick update about what's going on around here, then drop in a few random pictures for you to enjoy.

Diz and I have both been very busy, she with her new venture and me with our old trade. Heading to Los Angeles tomorrow for a couple of hearings, then back for a Friday night birthday dinner in Chicago with some friends. The next few weeks take me to St. Louis, New Orleans, maybe San Diego . . . All just prelude to The Brackett Creek Inn (tell me you've signed up!).

Last weekend, Diz and I headed down to South Bend for a ten year law school reunion. It was really fun, even though it was only my nine year reunion. I just had a bunch of buddies in the class ahead of me so we decided to join them for a weekend of barbeque, golf, some fishing, campfires, guitars, etc. I love Notre Dame in the summer. And really any time.

Ok, all. So far, I think the only guests we are expecting this summer are Rileigh and maybe Molly. You all need to get on the ball and plan a trip out here to hang out for a bit. You'd like Chicago in the summer, and we're in a pretty nice spot next to the lake and Wrigley. Come on out!

Finally, here are a bunch of random pictures, just because pictures make blog posts more fun. Here's Diz on the Chicago River a few summers ago.

Here's Sabina at the arboretum in Lincoln Park.

Here's us with the Philpot kids last summer.

And finally, here are a bunch of pics from when the girls and I were kids. Yes, that's a homemade go-cart (a.k.a. Death Buggy) that I used to fly on, brake-free, down the hills of Boulder.
