We're traveling!

It's official, we're going to Vermont in October, yay!!! And double yay, we're going to Florida in December!!!

First, we get to go "home" to where I grew up:

Yep, that's main street my home town!

And maybe we can see sole good ol' Vermont foliage:

And then it's off to Florida:

One of our favorite places for seafood nachos and beer.

And the best part of it all will be: flying with a 5 month old and then again with a 7 month old...fingers crossed it all goes well!

Nebraska vs Vermont

Lately I have been yearning to move back "home" to Vermont 24/7. So I figured I would blog about what I miss, and what I enjoy in Nebraska right now.

Vermont Misses:
-Being close to family (we went from living 3 houses away from S's family and 45 minutes from mine, to living 1500 miles away from anyone we are genetically attached to)
-Our big wooden porch (now we have a cement slab, boo)
-Privacy at our home
-Gorgeous Vermont Summers

Nebraska likes:
-Being 10 minutes from Target
-Classic brick tudors in our neighborhood
-Being 15 minutes from downtown and the airport
-Our fireplace-it's stinking cute!

Who knows where we will be in 3 years... we know we will need to have purchased a bigger home in NE than we have now, so we may have an bigger NE home or we may move elsewhere.....only time will tell!

The past year...

In a desperate attempt to keep up with all that has happened since last July we have decided to start a blog. Yes, M&S are entering into the modern world, finally! I'm going to say it all began with getting an IPod Touch and a Flip camera for Christmas. We were suddenly thrust into the world of touch screens and itty bitty screens, and now we have continued our exciting technological advancement with "smart" phones. While we may only be as up to date as 2008, we are getting there!

Here's the highlights of the past year:

We got married-07.25.09:

Bogey Joined our Family 08.27.09:

We got pregnant 09.19.09 (picture at 35 weeks):

Goodbye Vermont...

Hello Nebraska!

We Had a Baby, Anders Daniel L, 06.04.10:
And that's all of our big changes...for this week at least! On our docket for new things to do: some home remodeling (still!), more landscaping projects, and enjoying our son. S would love to get him into hockey skates this fall, but I think we may have to wait until he can stand on his own for that one!
