8 Months Later....

The first thing I promised people when Ron and I got word we were moving overseas was a blog. A way to keep everyone connected to our everyday lives. I'm not sure why it took so long to actually get it up and going. Well...let's be honest, I know EXACTLY why it is nearly June and I'm posting my FIRST post. I am a procrastinator. But that should be no surprise to anyone reading this. :)

I have no absolute purpose for this blog...I don't want to set anyone's expectations to high. This blog will be a hodgepod of everything: travel, translation errors, shopping, history, friends...etc. My main goal is too keep everyone involved in our lives while also documenting our time here in bella Napoli. WARNING: I'm assuming there will be TONS of pictures of Arianna. She is the currently the most photogenic person in our household. . My ultimate goal is to provide a post or at least a picture everyday. I see all of your eyes rolling with doubt right now and rightfully so. I am highly skeptical too, but I've got to set my goals high. Right?

I have so many stories to share from the last 8 months here in Italy. Not to mention...a huge life changing event. The birth of our beautiful daughter, Arianna. :) It has already been loads of fun and frustration and we are really looking forward to the next 2 1/2 years!

Disclaimer: Please don't judge my grammar. It will by no means be accurate and there are sure to be MILLIONS of grammatical errors. I'm sorry if this drives you nuts but the format will be as though I'm writing a casual e-mail to friends & family.

Looking forward to sharing our Neal Life with you all!!!!!!! :)

Arianna around 11 weeks...highly skeptical of my blog as well.  

Arianna and I in Sienna over Memorial Day Weekend:) She is 3 months here....getting SO big!
