Austin Video

Hello all.

So we figured we’d do a video to let everyone see where we live. This is our apartment. People have asked about the type of furniture they give us so here you will see. Nothing fancy, but we are more than happy with it. We live on the top of a big hill (as you will see). It’s much bigger than the last place so we love that. Because of our nomadic life we don’t have much to put on the walls. I’d love to have more on the walls but I don’t want to move it every 3 months…

We absolutely LOVE Austin so we will probably do more videos. This is my first time making a movie so bear with me while I learn ins and outs of the process. Hope you enjoy…

Miss you guys!
Ryan

P.S. It’s a big video so it will take a while if you don’t have high speed internet. Be very very patient.

Merry Christmas

Hope everyone had a very Merry Christmas & a Happy New Year! We really missed all our family and friends and hope next year we'll be able to celebrate with our family. I can't believe it's already the new year. Ryan & I have made it to Austin, TX for our next assignment. We got here on Friday to an empty apartment. We had to wait around for awhile for our furniture to arrive. We're very happy we're on the first floor this time. It made moving all our stuff in a lot smoother. Loki survived yet another car trip. We were all glad it was only a three hour drive instead of a three day drive. Loki's already made himself at home. He has more room to run around in, as this place is bigger than our last apartment.

We went out exploring the city and it looks pretty cool. Lots of really cute cafe's & coffee shops. We found two of the best comic book shops within a couple miles of our house so Austin's impressing us so far. We're looking forward to listening to some good live music and having some good eats at the many different restaurants we've seen. We'll do some more exploring this week and post some pictures of the town and our apartment.

Take Care & Write Soon!!!!
P.S. We got a really cool digital picture frame for Christmas (thanks mom & dad), so please email us some pictures so we can add them to the frame. FYI don't compress the pictures before sending them, it distorts them. Thanks!!!
