Dead Air

Seeing as I've been blogging since Jacob and I married in December 2008 (nearly two years!), it seems impossible that I could have missed an entire location that we've lived, but here it is November 2010 and I've catalogued our lives through Morocco, Oman and the UAE, Kentucky and Ohio. I've noted our travels through our countries-of-residence as well as France, Italy, Egypt, Jordan...but I've somehow been silent through our stay in the South - Carolina, that is.

And now, our time here draws to a close. We found out recently that we'd be returning home to Lexington almost exactly two years from the time we left to travel the world, and about 6 months earlier than we expected to move at all! Jacob has been offered a wonderful opportunity for work that will bring us home - closer to our family, our friends, our church home, our favorite restaurants, and our respective football teams.

So, a small tribute to our time here with a few favorite photos...and stay tuned. I have a few other bits of news to share over the next couple of weeks.

 My favorite spot in our Cola, SC home
Not actually in SC - but my cousin got married this fall and we were so excited to travel to Nevada for the event
 Also not in SC, but a notable event: the first annual girls trip.
 Now we're talking. Mucho Margaritas in Five Points for Dave's birthday.
 The South Carolina State Fair. This is big time here. Big. Time. We stopped for food first...mmm fair food...
 More fair
 And more fair food.
 Foley Beach during a day in and around Charleston.

 Mums and pumpkins for Halloween.
And the resulting Jack-O-Lanterns. From left to right: Anne, Clinton, Jacob.
