Revel and I went down to South Carolina back at the end of June for my sister Christine’s wedding. It was also a chance for Revel to meet my two brothers, Daniel (lives in Switzerland) and Philip (lives in Tokyo, Japan). We had a great time down there and Christine and Ricardo’s wedding was great. Here are some pictures from our trip and the wedding.

As Revel mentioned in the previous post, I recently (last year) became a US citizen. After becoming Naturalized last year, I needed to get a passport. So after some procrastinating, I finally applied. Less then two weeks later, I have my passport! (that’s fast!) So I am once again free to travel the world.

Michael and I went up to New Hampshire this weekend to visit my Grandmother who is out here from California for a few weeks. We were able to take a drive up Mount Washington and were fortunate to have a beautiful sunny clear day with breath taking views.

Both Revel and I enjoy the winters and all the fun activities available in the snow.

This year, we were able to go skiing (Revel) and snowboarding (Michael) in NH and Vermont, as well as snowshoeing and even took a spin on a snowmobile for the first time. We had some great trips and beautiful weather each time.
