8 days....

I´ve been doing a lot of last minute shopping these past couple of days. I´m having a lot of fun bonding with my friends. First out of town guest arrives tomorrow, my godmother Connie and her daughter Elizabeth from New Orleans, LA.

I´m not sure with how much frequency I´ll be able to write in the days building up to the wedding. Feel free to contact us by email or phone and we´ll do our best to help you with any questions you may have. I wanted to let you know that I´ll be using the blog after the wedding to update everyone from Hong Kong and to post pictures from the wedding and honeymoon.

I cannot wait to see everyone soon!

Y como siempre, al llegar a un final, tambien llegamos a un principio

The title is Spanish for "As always, when we arrive at the end, we also arrive at a new beginning". I read this quote in the newspaper when I was in eight grade and it has stayed with me since. It happens that I always find it true. Every time I arrive at the end of a stage of my life, I always start something new.

As it happens this time, I just finished the first semester of my MBA at SLU. I was really busy with school, which explains the lack of postings lately. In the end it was all good. I'm happy with what I've learned so far and I've met wonderful people along the way.

And, of course, during my last weeks of class we closed
on our new home! We've been doing some work... putting drywall in the kitchen to replace an ugly recess ceiling, painting, buying new furniture and decorating. We are having a lot of fun making this little house our new home. Below are some pictures of the progress so far. I will keep updating as we finish the projects.

Also, in the last couple of weeks, we booked our honeymoon. I have to go to Hong Kong for school from January 2-13. Ryan will meet me in Hong Kong and we are taking a 14-night cruise around South Asia, including Vietnam, Malasia, Singapore, and China! The cruise is called Costa Classica, and it is an Italian brand. We are so excited for this trip!!!! :D
