When we last left off...

So a lot has happened since I last posted here.Things of important  note I got married to my best friend and love of my life Eric=) So that is a pretty big thing. I might have to share some  pictures in this blog but most are on my Facebook. This being one of my top favorites. It was a beautiful day filled with loving friends and family. So grateful and lucky to share my life with amazing people.






We spent our Honeymoon in Paris and Rome=) Such a spectacular trip.

Paris is a place like no other. It was cold(we went in April). It rained at least a little everyday, we didn't speak even a hint of the language, we forgot all manner of proper weather clothing and it still was the most amazing experience. It is rich in history, the people we encountered were helpful and kind, the city has a wonderful transportation system that is very comprehensive. The Eiffel Tower at night is breathtaking. The French country side enchanted us. Seeing Winged Victory in all her glory brought a tear to my eye. Walking around central Paris you see a prefect mixture of old world meets modern world. The history is preserved and important. A gorgeous old building isn't torn down to build a skyscraper. It is remolded form the inside to make way for the new shops and business. I could carry on for a very long time about how much in love we are with Paris but I will spare you.....sort of.

 Love in Paris
Rome had some really great moments but overall I was very surprised by the city itself. Highlights included the Roman Coliseum. It has been something I wanted to see since I was in school studying the ancient worlds.Walking up Mount Vesuvius and looking out to see Italy. The low lights included the transit system and overall rude people.A special not should also be made that Roman graffiti is both ancient and modern and they do not go about hiding it in both cases.We took our Roman holiday in our room on May 1st and made the best of it=) We relaxed, napped and ate much like Romans=) I can get more pictures of Rome on a later post.


So much has happened in these months since I posted last months. I will try to update more often...no promises....

Eric and I are on the look out for a home of our own, and that is a big adventure that we have barely scratched the surface of.

I hope we are up for the challenge!

Best of wishes to you and yours=)
