Notre Dame game

Nick and I went to the Notre Dame v. Boston College game with our friends Paul and Michelle. While it was not the nicest day at the start, the rain eventually cleared. We even got a little sun toward the end of the game! It was my first game ever and only Nick's second game, so we were excited despite the weather. We got to tailgate and see campus before the game. We also got to see the marching band and follow them into the game!

Rainy tailgating...

The sun came out! ( In hindsight, I wish I had ditched the poncho and hood for this photo)

Nick's parents rescued a puppy! Here are some pics of him and Kodi meeting for the first time!

Kodi was a little jealous!

Greece

Nick and I went to Greece over our anniversary this year! We spent a couple of days in Athens and the rest of our time on the islands of Mykonos and Santorini. It was very beautiful there and we had great weather. We were able to spend a couple days riding around on first a scooter and then a four-wheeler (I thought 4 wheels might be safer than 2). It was a fun (if not scary) way to see the sites. Lots of crazy drivers there flying down very narrow, curvy roads, many on the edge of cliffs. Nothing like fearing for your life on vacation! Other adventures included a trip to Delos to see the ruins, a tour of the volcano in Santorini (including a dip in the hot springs), and visiting a neat winery on our anniversary.

Here are just a few pics. See more here.
