Reunited with Beth after almost 8 years. I spent two summers with her in England years ago – once as students at Oxford, and then as interns at Parliament. She hasn’t changed a bit! #friends #london (at Jamie Oliver’s Union Jacks Covent Garden)

We are the most efficient tourists ever! Despite a delayed and disheveled start (mostly on my part, down to the gravy in my hair…) we have seen a ton and still had extra time for a pint in Covent Gardens before I reunite with my old bestie, Beth. Can’t wait for Oxford and Paris tomorrow! Exhausted, but happy.
Story of my life… I am notorious for refusing to sweat at the gym (when I go!) Bring me a fan😘
According to the vet clinic in Okinawa, it will cost us about $17 per day to keep Annie in quarantine. The required time is 180 days. That means it’s going to cost us over $3,000 to get my baby into our new home! Fingers crossed I can avoid the official quarantine and get it done in-home…

My old wedding venue has had a serious makeover!! Can I have a do-over?? #countryclub #arlington #dc (at Army-Navy Country Club (ARL))

It’s good to be home for a hot minute. These next few days will be mostly catching up on logistical matters and spending time with family before we leave on vacation. After that, I have a couple of weeks to catch up with friends, too!
I hope to stay busy, regardless. While it is good to be home, that in-between limbo state always wears me out faster than I’d like. In some ways, I never want to leave, and I want my time in the States to be long and fulfilling. In other ways, I am just ready to get a move on!
Just crossed the SC border…
… So long, Georgia! So long.
Maneuver Captains Career Course graduation. Proud of my Chuckles! #usmc #army #fortbenning #milso #graduation (at Ft Benning Soldiers Plaza)
“Those that love you are not fooled by the mistakes you’ve made or the dark images you hold about yourself. They remember your beauty when you feel ugly; your wholeness when you are broken; your innocence when you feel guilty; and your purpose when you’re confused.”

New Lilly crush. No way am I spending $300 on it though! 😢 #lillypulitzer #dress #blue #coral
