Home Sweet Home

After many weeks in Texas, I have finally come back home to Rome. I was starting to scratch at the walls! I'm back with my own things and my sweet little girl, Cicciona. I would say Vance too, but he's in Sicily for work.


I had a great time. So many things occurred. Mom and I were able to gets lots of fun time together. I got certified to teach yoga at the Yoga Institute and then the week after I went on a Carnival cruise with my friend Amy. We went on a rip line tour in Jamaica, swam with the stingrays in Grand Caymans and whipped around on a speed boat in Cozumel Mexico. It was amazing! I highly recommend it.



Then I worked and worked at several hospitals in the Houston area. I loved ever minute of it and every paycheck!! Nursing rocks!!


I was able to visit many friends and family! Marcy and Chris, I'll miss our visits! My niece and nephew are the cutest! My sweet friend Kristy has a pleasantly plump pregnancy belly! I hope she has a smooth delivery in April. I went to New York for a friend's wedding where I met up with Vance who took the photos for John & Cami Boots. Cristina was available to visit me in my Pod! Then the next weekend, I spent time in New Orleans to celebrate my dad's birthday and my cousins wedding. It was a nice family reunion for the most part and I had the opportunity to see Elvis!




So many good times and nice memories. Don't get me wrong, my life isn't fine and dandy all the time. My 94 year old grandmother, Josephine Burgard passed away. Vance and I are grieving the loss of our little angel Timido. And I not only got into a car accident, I got a speeding ticket all in the same week! Now it's back to life and yoga! I start my yoga classes at The American University of Rome on Tuesday.
