Adventures in New England

We have been home for about 2 weeks now and we feel like we have been more busy than ever! I have yet to upload some photos from our trip to Addo Elephant NP along the coast of South Africa (although I am hoping to do that today). We have spent all of our time hanging out with much missed family members and dear friends. Two awesome weddings, much wine and beer, and lots of hugs and laughter have all been part of the recipe for happiness since we have been back. Those photos are all online now for your entertainment. Jay leaves for WA to start his new job the day after Thanksgiving and I am planning on sticking around New England and NY for the month of December to look for jobs and get our lives ready for a western move. We have also been looking at a few wedding venues along the way (in case anyone forgot, we are still planning on getting hitched!). Actually, our family members have been finding all the wedding venues for us! This has been great because we are so darn busy visiting missed friends and family that we haven't had time to do much searching ourselves. But we are hoping this week to check some of those places out for ourselves and we are excited!
