Mike, Rusty and I got in some golf last evening. It was a beautiful way to end the day!
I made these chocolate peanut butter covered frozen banana bites with the organic drinking dark chocolate that I had… YUM!! Mine didn’t look as nice as the ones in the recipe, but they were still VERY good! Here’s the link to the recipe if anyone is interested: http://www.neverhomemaker.com/2010/06/frozen-banana-bites.html?m=1
*Correction: “You’re going down Furminator!” (I despise it when I misuse ‘your’ and ‘you’re’… I’m just too lazy to recreate that image)
This is my favorite way to order food in Japan. Pick an item, match it up to the button on the vending machine, put your money in, get your ticket and give it to the person behind the counter! Love it! No stumbling through ordering in Japanese required! 😀
I made a donation to the Tsunami Relief Fund at the Camp Zama Cherry Blossom Festival today and received these origami cranes that were put together by a Girl Scout troop in Milford, MA, two towns away from my hometown! Funny!

My totally awesome brother-in-law! He took the videos and I edited them together.

Mark’s (my brother-in-law) 2011 US Open Race!
Tia and I boarded a flight in Boston bound for Tokyo on Thursday, March 1st at 7:50am (Thomba was in the belly of the plane, poor kitty). We had a two and a half hour flight to Chicago, where Tia and I took advantage of our 2 hour layover by stretching our legs and having […]

While Mike’s been exploring Japan I’ve been enjoying my time in the northeast, which, of course, involves hiking! Since Mike’s been gone I’ve done three hikes in the New England area. First, JuJu, JoJo, D and I hiked Monadnock in New Hampshire. It was a beautiful day with blue-bird skies, perfect temps, icy terrain and […]

As most of you know, Mike left for Japan on the 2nd of January. The kitties and I weren’t able to join him on a count of the base not having any housing available for us all. Mike is currently residing in the Officer’s Quarters at Camp Zama. Since Mike has left we’ve kept in […]

We’re heading to Japan! I seriously can’t even begin to tell you how excited I am that we’re heading to Japan for three years!! Every opportunity I get I’m searching the web for any information I can find on the country! I’m amazed at what I’ve found so far and I know I’ve only scratched […]

EXCITING news folks!!! We’ve set a new world record for the speed at which we went from “engaged” to “married”!! OK, that may be a lie… Either way, in less than a month’s time we went from being fiancés to being husband and wife! The Army certainly makes you think about these kinds of life-changing […]

October in the south is when folks start emerging from their air-conditioned homes, cars and stores to explore the great outdoors. With arms wide open I welcomed the cooler air and a friend from the north! Danielle came down late September into early October to say, “Hi” and see what Bama had to offer. Well, […]
Change is inevitable and I choose to embrace it! My life has changed a bit since my last entry. As most of you already know I’ve moved down to Alabama, a state where Chiggers out number people 10:1! OK, I may have made that up, but it’s a good guess! Mike and I packed up […]

Mike and I departed Boston Saturday (Sept 12) at 3:15pm and arrived in Seattle at 8:10pm. It was only about a 4 hour flight across the country (no head wind). We met up with Gina, Nate and Paresh for some yummy pizza and a couple of drinks. I spent Saturday night at Gina and Nate’s […]

I think I might have forgotten that I had a blog for a little while here… My apologies. I believe a recap would be appropriate. Stay with me now, this might take a little bit… {deep breath} and here we go… June 20th, Meghan’s Bachelorette party, Boston MA. There were quite a few of us […]

WOW! That word pretty much sums up my weekend! What a way to end the winter climbing season! Mark, Mike and I began our hike up one of the gullies on Mt. Webster fairly early on Saturday morning. We had the most perfect weather you can imagine. We all actually got a little bit of […]

OK… so I’m not awesome at keeping up-to-date with this blog stuff… Hmmm alright, let’s see… what’s happened since my last entry?… I typically can’t remember what I did yesterday so you’ll forgive me if I forget something. Here it goes… Sometime in January Gina, Danielle and I went snowboarding at Pat’s Peak. It was […]
