Turning Twenty Six in Bali.

People have been asking me if I took them off my mailing list - which means I haven't been writing at ALL in the past... whoa... few months. Sorry folks. Lots to catch you up on.

It was my 26th birthday a few weeks ago and I spent in the mountains of Bali with Andrew, who had decided to visit for a short but much needed vacation. As I grow older, I realize that I need to balance myself more. I love the hustle and bustle, cocktail parties and city life, but I also need to curl up with a cup of tea and a good book once in awhile. Fortunately for me, my birthday week was packed with lounging around the pool, eating copious amounts of delicious food and contemplating the universe. It was my kinda birthday. Here are some of the highlights.

What's wrong with this photo? My twin sister is missing,
I MISS YOU DANIELLE. HAPPY BIRTHDAY! !


Soaking up few minutes of sunshine. After being in Seattle for seven years,
I need a little vitamin D therapy.

    Good to hear from you again, and more importantly – Happy 26th!

    Life here on the entrepreneurial side of Amazon continues to be busy, as is the family life.
