I had the opportunity to attend a conference for work in Atlanta this week so I was there from Thursday-Saturday. Of course, work trips are generally filled with work so there wasn't much time for exploring. My co-workers and I did get to sneak away for a couple meals though and we tried to spend as much time as possible on outdoor patios! It was PERFECT weather. A sunny 73 degrees... *sigh* it made we rethink why we live in Iowa. Ha!
We attended the awards banquet where Ashley was honored as a "Star Status" Walk for 2010! Woohoo, way to go girl!
We learned all sorts of new things surrounding the re-branding of our signature event,
now called the Walk to End Alzheimer's!
now called the Walk to End Alzheimer's!
We enjoyed a number of inspiring speeches including one by David Hyde Pierce
(Niles from the Frasier show!)

We had a little fun experiencing what "Walk" is all about.
And most importantly, we were reminded why we do what we do...
to END Alzheimer's disease.
It was a very busy few days and I'm completely exhausted today. I'll have to admit... I'm dreading going back to work already tomorrow but I guess that's life! ...On another note, Kurt has been laid off for the last week and half but was already called back to work. I guess we'll both be dragging our feet a little on Monday. =)
Have a great week!
