August, Part Two (I had to split it up, there were too many pictures!):
Other than China, we spent a bunch of time in Central Park or at sidewalk cafes. Below is Cody and Tim at Heidelberg.

Lazy Sunday napping in the park with friends...oh wait, that was just Bailey sleeping!
Bailey was growing up very quickly...she had doubled in size between June and August. Below are some random pictures.
Even though she grew...she's still about an 1/8 the size of a Smart Car!
Sometime during the middle of August, I planned a work happy hour. We held it in New Jersey. It was on a clear night and the views of the city were fabulous.

Finally, at the end of August, it was the US Open. It was the last year NBCU had the rights, so it was very bittersweet. I'm happy I won't be crazed for all of August, but I will miss the great tennis. This year, Mother Nature decided to bring a hurricane through New York during Finals Weekend, so the tournament was extended an extra day - major headache for me communicating with clients, but all turned out well. It was a little emptier than normal in the suite for the Men's Finals, and I was able to snag a seat in the front row for the last few games to see Federer win his 5th (or was it 6th?) straight US Open. So exciting! :)
Below is a picture of Roddick practicing on Center Court on the Thursday before the tournament started - we were setting up the suite. Pretty cool how much "back stage" stuff we got to see as suite holders.

Below is a picture of Arielle and myself - she and I used to work at NBCU together on events (like the US Open). One of her friends had front row courtside seats, so I joined her for a few games...and I thought the suite had great seats!

October to follow...
