Venezia!

So here are some pictures from our trip to Venice with our friends and neighbors, Jenny and Allen. Venice was absolutely beautiful and extremely hot...in fact, I think you can find me still complaining about how hot it was over there! Nonetheless, we had a great time in Venice and Murano! Enjoy the pics!









The lovebirds on the Rialto Bridge




The lovely Burketts on the Rialto Bridge, or as Allen calls it, the Risotto Bridge!

Jason's Promotion

Here's a few pictures from Jason's promotion ceremony to Lieutenant Commander...I was so proud of him and even got to help pin on his bars! It was a great ceremony and I couldn't have been more happy for my adorable hubby :)


His partner, M.T., performing the ceremony



So exciting!

Siena and Assisi with The Zooks!

Ciao everyone! It's been a while since I posted new pictures on the blog, and now I've got some catching up to do. In May, Jason's parents and sister came to visit us and we spent some time traveling throughout Tuscany, which has now become our favorite place. We visited Siena, Florence and Assisi, and then they traveled to Venice on their own. Hope you enjoy the pictures!
