Over the last year and a half Jason and I have been through a LOT! Since our honeymoon (the last post) we've:
- Had a great first 'married' christmas together! We were blessed to spend time with both the Piero's and the Taylor's and even got some snowmobiling in!
- Traveled to West Palm Beach, FL- It rained the whole trip. In fact, we actually drove our rental car across the state to go to our beloved Fort Myers Beach where we finally caught some sun! Our time there was the best part of our trip, despite our sunburn!
Finally able to relax on the beach
- love the white powder of Ft. Myers Beach
Yay for Ft. Myers!

- finally sunny on our last day! - I quit my job at WellnessWorks/Schumacher Group and got a new job at Oswald Companies (started in June 2013)!
- Buckeye games!
Go Bucks!
Tailgating with Aaron Kline before a game - Traveled to Traverse City, MI (twice!) - Gorgeous scenery, great wine! I'd move to this place willingly!
- Jason had his 30th birthday! We celebrated by going bowling, and having a fantastic dinner! A few days later we had a birthday party with family and friends in celebration!
- A few days after Jason's birthday we got the news that Jason got a new job at Boston Beer Company (Sam Adams) near Allentown, PA! So he quit his job at Anheuser-Busch and off we went on our biggest adventure together so far!
- Off on our next adventure - house hunting in PA and selling our house in Columbus.

for our house hunting trip - Jason started his job on March 3, 2014. For the next few months we lived in the hotel then an apartment (makes you be more thankful for the great things in life). Lots of house hunting happened over the next couple of months.
Making beer on the 2 burner stove in the
Homewood Suite that we called home for 2 months! - We spent a couple of days back in Columbus to move out of our house and do some of our favorite things (mostly visiting our favorite restaurants).
Last meal at Rusty Bucket!
Moving Day! 
Our last look at the Columbus house! - We finally found our perfect home, made an offer, and closed on our new home June 10, 2014! The moving truck pulled up on that Friday, June 13. We were joined by many family members to help clean, unpack, organize, and decorate our new home. Many thanks to all of our loved ones.
- My sister, Lauren tied the knot July 19, 2014! Officially welcoming Jon Cridge into the crazy Piero family! Wonderful family time! (lack of photos since my phone stayed in my purse most the the day)
The happy couple ~ Congratulations Mr. and Mrs. Jonathan Cridge!
The Piero Family in the photo booth! - Jason's sister, Megan, tied the knot August 2, 2014 in Hawaii! We vacationed in Hawaii and even though a hurricane threatened our stay we had a fabulous sunny time!
First sunrise of the trip!
The happy couple ~ Congratulations
Mr. and Mrs. Shane Stubblefield!
Taylor siblings!

The day before we left!
The picture above was taken the evening before we left. When we woke up the day of our departure the heavy winds and rain confirmed that the hurricane was certainly moving in. Once we left Kailua and got to the other side of the mountain, the sun was shining and we all began to wonder why our US Air flight was the only flight canceled for the day... luckily we were able to get on a United flight back to the mainland.
At HNL - view outside our gate! Still sunny
Thankful to be home bound - long flights ahead of us! - Oswald finally hired a replacement for my position in Columbus, and I helped trained my replacement before my last day October 3, 2014. Since then I've been working to make our house a home and get life back on track.
A lot has happened in our lives over the past year! At times it was stressful especially through the move from Columbus to PA but we moved through those tough times with grace. And now that we are on the other side of those times we couldn't be more thankful for all of great experiences we've had and how much we have grown together!
