Baby Blaise

The newest member of The Cantley Clan, Baby Blaise. He is at home with his family and is very healthy! Morgan & Megan are great big sisters!

He is so precious and I look forward to having one of my own someday (once Josh reduces his work schedule to less than 18 hours a day). :-)

Over 40 Inches of Snow

In one week, DC was slammed with over 40 inches of snow! This caused the federal government to close down 4 out of 5 days in the week!

On Thursday (2/4), I went to Costco to stock up on food and a few bottles of vino. It was the craziest I have EVER seen it! My company gave us the word on Thursday afternoon that we could work from home on Friday. It began to snow on Friday in day and continued to snow through late Saturday night. On this snow storm, we received about 28 to 30 inches in Arlington.

On Tuesday, it began to snow yet again! It did not stop until late Wednesday night. This left us with an additional 12 inches. I am so grateful we live in Arlington and were able to get out a couple times and walk to restaurants.

I was very happy to be able to cook a bunch of things I haven't had time for lately. Over the week, I cooked Jambalaya, Potato Soup, homemade pizza dough, sauce and several pizzas, Pulled Pork and a few appetizers. I LOVE to cook when I have the time!

Paint Project

From The Justice League


I decided to paint the condo a couple weeks ago. Josh was very against this idea (he thought we should hire someone) and very busy with work (as always). :-) I was dead set on putting paint on the walls and couldn't wait another day. I went to Home Depot (multiple times that weekend) and picked out a color. I painted the entire living room and hallway all by myself (literally). Wow, all I can say is painting is a lot harder than it looks. It was a very exhausting task. Putting up the tape took a long time and then the whole "cutting-in" process is time consuming as well. Anyways, I still need to do a few touch ups but I was proud of myself for completing a project like this one all on my own.

I also FINALLY put up some wedding photos on the walls. :-)

Bad Dog, Marley!

This is what a naughty puppy can do to a pair of heels. :-(

Orlando

Josh's annual Xerox conference was held in Orlando, Fl this year. The actual conference started on Tuesday but we decided to go down on Friday to spend a couple days at the theme parks. We stayed at the Loews Portofino Hotel in Universal. My favorite party of the hotel was the spa. We got great massages there! It was a nice hotel but the service was not as top-notch as we expected.

Josh had never been to Disney so we spent a day there. We went to 3 Disney parks in 1 day! Normally, this would be impossible due to crazy lines. However, it was quite cold in Orlando so many people decided to stay home. We did not encounter ANY lines there - It was great. We enjoyed Epcot the most!

On Monday, we bundled up in coats and headed into the main park at Universal. It was oh so cold. Florida is supposed to be warm all year round! :-(
Universal did not amuse me too much. The rides were okay but I don't think I would return, well, maybe we will when we have kids.

I traveled home on Tuesday when the conference began and Josh arrived back home on Friday. Despite Florida being frigid, it was a nice mini-vaca.

New Camera

I love this camera! It takes such great photos. I am a loyal Canon camera lover. I lost my canon in summer and was so sad. I had been using a temp camera until I got this. It also records HD videos. Love it!
