the cat's out of the bag...

i've come to realize that my blog has been a bit neglected.  (haha) like exactly a full calendar year, neglected. it's safe to say its been a really hectic year and blogging wasn't a part of it.  we've had lots of excitement, stress, change and accomplishments for us both, and now we have even bigger things ahead of us...

here's the summary:

we saw the ocean for the first time together.

we set our wedding date of 09/12/15.

we celebrated our 4 year anniversary.

WE BECAME A FIRST TIME AUNT & UNCLE!

i set a company record for a 26 month sales streak.

mark earned his bachelors degree from ohio university. (!)

we endured crazy amounts of work stress.

we saw the ocean for the second time together.
i met my idol Tori Amos.

we were lucky to spend our summer feeding rhinos & giraffes. 

and now...

MARK & I ARE MOVING TO FLORIDA (in 6 months)!

we are ecstatic to have the love and support from our family & friends and are so excited to start a new life in a (tropical) new place.

we're able to finish up all obligations here in the next six months and hope to see as many people and do as many things in ohio as possible before we go.  of course we are nervous, and excited and NERVOUS, and did i mention we are EXCITED!!!  our florida wedding just became a lot less destination for us.  we look forward to this fresh start together!

you can follow us as we share our experience along the way.

kindness is for the birds.

random i know...

i'm not one to eat the heels of a loaf bread... i don't know why, but i never have.  even though it is in fact edible bread i just don't fancy it. (its probably because it seems like a giant piece of crust which i usually pick off anyways).  earth day is coming up soon and mark and i have been discussing our wastefulness and carbon foot prints and would love to make a permeant change in our lifestyle.  for some reason, the other day, we started with the bread.  we are lucky enough to have a fairly large body of water near our place and its usually full of fish, ducks and geese.  so we thought it would be good to share our soon to be wasted bread heels with our local animal friends.

they wanted nothing to do with us...

and literally fled the scene :(

too bad, so sad!

whats everyones plan for earth day 2011?
