Travel Bug

This will be a short post, but I have some exciting news to tell everyone. Luke and I booked a trip to Europe. I am so excited, I have been dreaming about this very trip for about 4 - 5 years. First, we go to Istanbul, Turkey. I am excited to go here because I have heard and read great things about this diverse city. Luke is excited to go here because it’s on the Asia border, and will get us into a new continent.  Our next stop will be Athens, Greece. I am excited about this city because of its history and food. Even though I hate olives I love American Greek food, so I am hoping for the best! The last stop will be Dubrovnik, Croatia. We splurged in this city and are staying right on the beach. I am looking forward to relaxing and enjoying the beautiful beaches along with the unique architecture. All in all, this is going to be an amazing trip. And don’t worry we purchased a HD video camera (Luke is looking forward to being the camera man) and we’re going to get an extra memory card for the digital camera. So, there will be a lot of pictures and hopefully some entertaining video!

Shout Out to Kendra and Lesley

Two of my friends recently started blogs. I thought that I would give them a "shout out" in our blog. I have become obsessed with reading other peoples blogs. I find that it's a great way to see what's going on in their lives and it kills some time when work is slow. ;) So, for anyone interested...here are the links to their blogs.

(And for some reason I can't get these links to hyperlink, so if you want to read their blogs you will have to copy and paste the web address into your web browser.)

Not much to report going on with Luke and I. Luke was in Atlanta this week for a class, so when I was finished with work I drove over to Atlanta and we spent a night there. We went to Ikea (I really love that store, we got some great kitchen items that would have cost a lot more anywhere else) and we went to the Atlantic Shopping Center. It is very similar to Easton in Columbus. It was nice to do something different and experience some of Atlanta, including the traffic. Yikes! Other than that we have been enjoying the warming weather. It's been in the 60's and 70's. BEAUTIFUL. I doubt I will think it's that beautiful come summer, but we are enjoying it now.
