Start the Celebration!

Brad is done with Law School!!!!! All that is left is Graduation!

Laura, Kevin, Emily & Brandon came down from New York to help kick off the festivities! Joe & Carolyn made wonderful fajitas and let us all hang out at their house all weekend! It was wonderful to hang out with friends and to spend some time together before we leave for Chile!

New Carrier

India has decided on her mode of transportation to Kansas & then on to Santiago! She seems very comfortable in her snazzy, new red bag. I've been feeding her treats and tuna occassionally in the bag. Also, I took her to the park. At home, she takes naps in the bag and also jumps in and out of it! Hopefully, it will work out!

Piso Nuevo

We found an apartment! Thank goodness for craigslist! Brad & I are so excited about this place. It is in the neighborhood Providencia, which is supposed to have great little restaurants and shops! There is also a police station, 2 grocery stores and a metro stop nearby! The place comes fully furnished, including a stocked kitchen! I'm probably most excited about the pool! (Mom, I promise to wear lots of sunscreen!!!! )

We're Moving!

It is for real!!! Brad & I are officially moving to Santiago, Chile. Brad will be working as a Foreign Associate for 1 year at a Law Firm in Santiago. He expects his work to be both international and domestic. We are very excited to go on this adventure. I've been reading all I can find on Chile and getting more excited/nervous as time moves on!

I put in my resignation at work on April 9th and have pretty much spent the last two weeks telling coworkers and residents about the big move. I've also spent a lot of time crying. Once a sweet, older lady (a bubby) starts crying, it's hard to hold back the tears! I'm sure there will be many more tears & hugs to come. My last day of work will be May 9th! I'm really going to miss my life at the Slipper!!!!

Ahhh Ahhh Kansas!

I miss these nice Kansas sunsets.

Happy Birthday India!!!!

India is three years old today, actually 21 in cat years!


Amy is encouraging India to pose for a photo.
We got India from a local shelter soon after we moved to Philly! She is four months in these younger pictures.


Brad & India - look no red eye!!!
These two like to fight. India plays pretty rough & will wait for Brad to walk by and attack his leg.


This is a recent picture of India. Happy Birthday!
