15 seconds of fame



We weren't planning on a trip into manhattan when we bought our new york airfare,
but 15 stops later on the subway we found ourselves in times square,
After shopping and walking we glanced up and what did we see?
some very familiar faces on a rather large big screen tv!
(even if it was a short trip to new york, we had to make time for the metropolitan museum of art)

becoming a post grad = celebration!!



Well....I did it!! I finally graduated from college with a degree in Art History. It's always a good feeling to accomplish one of your life goals. Being a student has been great, but I am absolutely thrilled to be done and to make the transition from a backpack to a full time purse! Hooray! So- what did we do to celebrate the closing of my college era??? We decided to ditch the rain....



...and say HELLO to the warm and welcoming Caribbean sun!!



A couple months back, Jake and I planned to invest our tax refund and do a little traveling. We love to take trips in May because it's cheaper, the weather is perfect, and we beat the crowds. So.. after graduation we spent a couple days in Puerto Rico before taking a cruise ship to the US Virgin Islands and Bermuda. Our cruise ended in New York where we were able to spend a couple days to sight see and more importantly visit art museums;). It's nice to get out of the usual surroundings for a little bit. I love exploring the world, getting lost in new places, and rediscovering myself. We had a blast and of course and it was a bummer to come back to the real world. But, life is definitely good.
