Hey Vanessa, is this a fundraiser?  If so what's the cause?

Laura, thanks for asking.  I am way too pregnant to remember all the important things like including fundraising information in a blog!  I've updated the post.  Have a great day!

Just about seven weeks to go and I feel like my stomach actually reaches to another time zone!

That's terrific!  Good luck, look at it this way, at least you won't have to go through the wonderful Jersey heat and humidity!  I know it's not real estate related, but I'd love to see some pix of the new jr. realtor!  Take care of yourself and the little one!

hi Vanessa, sorry I won't make it this year.  I had hoped to come up today to do the tour (an visit Porfirio's in Hamiliton for some fresh made pasta)  but I forgot about the Educade in Eatontown for Monmouth, Middlesex and Ocean counties.  I did learn some stuff, but it ran from 9-2pm.  Kind of killed the day!  Hope it went well!
