About Us

Honeymoon in Mexico
October 2006

For our honeymoon, we spent 10 days in Acapulco, with a day trip to Taxco, Mexico. We had a fabulous time!


Riding the YetskiOur favorite drinksSelf-pic in Taxco

Our very own Barbie pool!

Italy!
April 2008

Scott's research took him to a conference in Florence, Italy, and lucky for me, he took me too! We started out in Florence, and visited Venice and Rome on the trip. We fell in love with Italy, and can't wait to return again someday (soon, hopefully!)

To the right is the complete 200 picture slide show, and I've pulled out a few favorites for the webpage. Enjoy!
