Three Minutes of Fame

So this summer is off to a more ambitious start than I expected. This morning I was unexpectedly on Fox 59 with my dad for an interview. For those of you not familiar, that is just our local news channel here in the burbs (suburbs) of Indy. I must admit, TV is not something I ever pictured myself on, but what the heck, I am trying to document my normal ordinary for the time being right? New adventures, spontaneity, all that jazz. I would definitely call this a new adventure, and if it became part of my normal ordinary, I wouldn't be so mad about it.  It was actually really fun seeing all the behind the scenes stuff. If you want to watch, here it is!

So I over exaggerated a little… I had more like 30 seconds of fame, but the right side of my hair got a lot of action. It was predominately about my dad's words of wisdom that made the news, but hey! He did a great job and I was happy to sit there and speak my 30 seconds with pride. My dad is a family therapist here in Indy, and he is a darn good one if I do say so myself. My stepmom is also stepping into the business and was also on Fox talking about all this new technology that my dad is bringing to the midwest. It's also pretty cool if you want to check that out below.

Okay, but now to the other best part of my day: My first summer walk with mom :) For as long as I can remember, my mom and I have had our best talks and laughs on a walk, and we've also our deepest heart-to-hearts and hash-outs on our walks. Now that I am in college, we walk just about everyday in rain or shine while I am home for the summer just because we always have things to talk about. Today, we decided we don't need sunshine to have fun:

We both were getting a little too stir-crazy in the house with all the rain, so of course we walked to dinner and made an adventure out of it.

Usually my summer doesn't start off with quite so much going on, but I am perfectly okay with this. Happy day two on the blog!
