Oops, I miss spoke

In my post entitled Rich Dad meets Carnegie in the land of the Phoenix Sun, I made a statement that Sharon Lechter was combining the courage and confidence course from Dale Carnegie with the financial literacy material from Rich Dad Poor Dad. I goofed on my wording of that sentence. She was very clear during our meeting that the material Sharon intends to use with the Dale Carnegie couse will be original material and was not part of the Rich Dad materials. I just wanted to clear up any confusion. Thanks!

Has it been one year already?


Man, how time flies...

Jess and I celebrated our one year anniversary on memorial day weekend. Technically, it was the following Tuesday, but who wants to celebrate an anniversary on a Tuesday? We went back to the scene of the crime - the crime being the restaurant I took Jess to after I proposed and surprised her with friends and family from all over the country. We had another phenomenal meal and enjoyed opening our messages that people wrote at our wedding (see pics below).

We then exchanged gifts and I was the beneficiary of two Buffett tickets -- so she earned huge points for that. I did most of my shopping at Anthropologie, where a man can walk in blindfolded, pick out anything and it will be a winner. Having said that, I spent way too long in that store.

Anyway, we spent the day at the Detroit Zoo and the highlight was being able to spend a few minutes in the habitat of some furry little creatures (see pic).

The grand finale was on Tuesday when I came home to see my beautiful wife watching tv on the couch in her wedding dress. It fit beautifully!

All in all it was a wonderful time. We received lots of phone calls and good wishes and were so thankful to have spent our wedding with so many of you.

much love to you all!

Corey and Jess
