Proud to be a Georgia Bulldawg

Greetings from the Geneva airport. This is my second time passing through the airport in less than 10 hours!

We landed here at 9:30 this morning, after a redeye from Atlanta, and I spent a quick few hours at home showering, unpacking, packing again, working, and taking a quick nap before heading back to the airport.

I’m heading to Madrid for customer meetings and will be there for less than 24 hours. I’m hoping that the combination of healthy eating, vitamins, NUUN, green juice, water, and 5.5 hours sleep on the red eye will help me push through the meetings tomorrow so I’m not a zombie. I’m so glad we stocked up on healthy flight essentials at Whole Foods yesterday on our way to the airport!

This weekend in Georgia was so much fun! It’s been years since Bo and I returned to Athens for a football weekend so the fact that the 40 Under 40 honor included tickets to the football game was such a fun addition. Any game between the hedges is fun but winning 66-0 versus Troy made the day that much sweeter! I stood, screaming and cheering, more than I sat which is always the sign of a great game. There were some incredible plays by the team, including Sony Michel and Todd Gurley.

As luck would have it, two of us who received the 40 Under 40 honor currently reside in Switzerland. Mai Lise and I were known as the “Swiss honorees” this weekend anytime someone was referring to us. I’m so thankful we were able to catch up back in Athens but it definitely reminded me that Bo and I need to head over to pay her a visit in Basel, as it’s supposed to be gorgeous! I also had the chance to catch up with my friend Kate who was one of my friends in 9th and 10th grade. We both graduated from UGA but hadn’t seen each other in years though through our blogs and social media we stay in touch quite regularly.

Thank you to the University of Georgia for providing us with with football tickets and the very special honor and memory of being recognized on the field! It was a truly wonderful day. I am so thankful to be part of the Georgia Bulldawg family!
