Fair-well Dinner in Oxford, UK with dear friends...















Justin and I live down the road from the cutest family pub. It is very artsy, warm and the food is wonderful!! Our friends joined us tonight out on the Iffley Village town. It was in the 30's outside but I love nights like that. Walking down the Fall leaf laden road while chatting with friends. I am going to miss nights like this... They have all been such a blessing in our life. Thank you friends for loving us and supporting us through the good and tough times this past year.

Time Flies when your having a BLAST!!



I can't believe a year ago today Justin was matriculating into The University of Oxford. It's a right of passage and a long time tradition the school has been doing for hundreds of years. Man time flies!! It seems just like yesterday. That was the first day I met Kelli, Matteo, Katia and Georgie!! Such wonderful friends we have been blessed to have ♥ We are going to miss you all SO MUCH!!

We'll Be Home For Christmas!



Yes, Justin and I are moving back to Florida. Justin has received his Masters here in Oxford and we are going back to the States to pursue funding for a PhD. The Estradas have graciously offered us a roof over our heads till we can get our feet on the ground and figure things out school wise. They have been so very good to us and supportive during this time of transition. So thank you Mom and Dad Estrada for showing Christ's love to us. It will be nice to see my mom and sisters. We have not seen them in over a year. Can't wait to see you all and so happy we get to spend Thanksgiving and Christmas with the Fam!
