times...they are a-changin

So much had happened in the past month since our last post which has kept us way too busy. Shopping Buddy Gnome and her husband, one of the three Amigos, has just left us for their first assignment. Before they left we had a week of festivities from going out to eat celebrating a pretend birthday, wine night, Red Mango, brunch, tea time, and brunch again…of course. It has been so much fun spending time with them, but it has also opened our eyes that we are all going to go our separate ways soon… and they were just the first to go. We only have a few weeks left here so it is time to get down to business and focus on organizing our stuff for the movers, tying up loose ends, and getting all the stuff we need for the next two years that we can’t get there.

There are two new awesome developments that we are super excited about. First, Mama Gnome has run her very first half Marathon! Painfully…but successfully, and best of all it has led to us to signing up to go to France for the Paris Marathon along with the three Amigos and Amigas (and who could forget the Fjord Four?)! Secondly, we have booked our cruise through the Mediterranean with our amazing family. We are really looking forward to being able to see Greece, Turkey, and Italy with the family. This upcoming year is going to be awesome and we can’t wait to get it started.
