it's a mystery

hi everyone! sorry i have been so MIA lately. as you might know, i am living in chicago and going to grad school. life has changed dramatically in the past few weeks. since the last post, i went on a trip to new zealand with some of my new grad school friends. the funnest part was that we didn't know where we were going until we got on the bus to the airport - talk about crazy! anyways, new zealand was amazingly beautiful and fun. i had a great time with the group. since returning, i have been in orientation madness for two weeks. i forgot what it was like to be a student.

the fun part is meeting other newly married or engaged folks and sharing ideas. i have seen some beautiful engagement rings (although i LOVE mine the best) as well. don't have much time to write, but here's a picture a friend took in new zealand when we were sailing on an america's cup boat. would new zealand be an amazing honeymoon destination or what?
