Joining the wonderful world of.....

Well, here it is! The first ever Emanuel & Erica blog. As of right now a total of ZERO people know this exists... Isn't that an inspiring thought? Either way, we wanted to share our experiances with all of our friends and family that live oh, so far away. Emanuel is working hard 6 days a week as an english teacher/translator for the Veracruz Gov't. He generally enjoys it, and the perks make it hard to leave. We spend lots of time together and cant complain about it! His job takes us snorkeling in the ocean, to the Aztec Pyramid ruins, whitewater rafting, kayaking, horseback riding on the beach.... Oh the many wonderful experiances we have had. Erica is playing stay at home housewife right now. She is learning lots of spanish and would really impress you if you heard her. Although she isnt quite up to carrying on a full conversation, she is starting join in conversations no one thought she could understand. Our 2 little doggies, Roxie & Zumie are acclimating fairly well to the new heat and humidity. They are big fans of the cold tile floors and spend most of the day lounging around while Erica tries to clean up around them. Zumie fell in love with Roxie and we are proud to announce that they are gonna be parents!!! Expected arrival date: May 20th!! Erica is planning on take a 2 month trip to Utah to help her mom out this summer. Emanuel is nervous to be alone, and Erica is nervous to leave him alone!! Married for 6 months, separated for 2... What were we thinking?? Either way, it will be good in many ways! #1 We will FINALLY have our Volvo. We have been driving our giant clunker Explorer, and are tired of its quirks. Also, We will be returning Roxie and bringing Emanuels puppy, Pearl!! We are excited to have her, but not thrilled to be sleeping with her. She is quite a bed hog, and licks mercilessly!

Until Next Time.....

  2. Okies Erica,
    I went ahead and subscribed to your blog! I am the first to do it. Anyhoo, it is nice to know what you guys are up to since your so far away. Right now you are missing a lovely winter storm, I know...try not to be too jealous. I'm still not hitched, but my lips to God's ears, that will happen soon. Narayan has two more classes before he graduates, and then life might actually start to go as planned. Fingers crossed at least.
    I look forward to your next post!
