And I'm back...

I know I have basically taken the semester off from blogging. After the first week of not writing, I avoided the page and then it just became something I wanted to do but felt like I had been gone for too long! My New Years resolution is just to do the things that make me feel good. I think more consistent blogging is one of those things.


Quick updates:


I just finished my first semester of Grad school. I have to say that it was much more stressful than I had anticipated. I was just getting used to my 9-5 when we relocated and all my downtime became unused homework time! The last month Justin, Nala and I have been in the Northeast visiting friends & family.




This has included snowshoeing, making gingerbread aka graham cracker houses and chocolate cheesecake in Maine as well as a trip to Boston, NYC and Montauk to see the fam.







The pictures below were taken during out trip to Montauk, the first few are house on the beach by my house and the last few are town beaches.

Here you can see all the sand that was taken away from hurricane Sandy
Some houses have added sand since the storm 
You can see the damage that has been done to this house 
This is the entrance to the beach... substantial amount of foam

note the exposed deck of one of the waterfront hotels


We are heading back to Florida after the New Year and I am feeling up for the challenge of my second semester. Justin is still playing cards fulltime and I am really proud of him! Nala has entered her terrible two's which apparently comes with some fence jumping.
