Christina and I hiked the Pleasanton Ridge and had a great time today. We couldn't have asked for better weather, but I think we both got more sun than we intended. I spilled some iced coffee on my shirt about 25 minutes into the hike, if you're wondering what is up with that. I know who hikes with coffee? Yeah Jeremy does and that didn't work out so well for me. About 40 minutes into...
My parents let me know last night they had to put Otis down which surprisingly came as quite a shock. Otis has been a part of the Person family since I was in high school in Maryland.

Why is it that some people who have everything yet spend most of their life going into and out of rehab? Then you meet someone who has been abused or nobody...
This morning we had our CMMA Board Meeting which was the work part, but the fun part was taking a private tour of the Dallas Cowboys stadium this afternoon! The stadium is amazing, and the stadium screen is even more amazing. I certainly didn't expect to get to do this on the tour, but we pretty much got to see every part of the stadium including the locker room and even go on the field...
