2008 Recap

The photos below include a picture of Elwood with Pappy, the two of us at the Ryder Cup, and me with Pappy, Mom and Aunt Mary at our Rehearsal Dinner.

As you know, 2008 was a big year for us. We've had lots of adventures, big and small. We got married! I know many of you were able to make it to Columbus and we appreciated having you here. It was such a great time in our lives!! And we of course want to mention how thankful we are to our families for their support in bringing together the wedding day and all things leading up to it. THANKS!!!
And we honeymooned in Mexico, which was the most amazing trip ever. The pictures I'm posting here just do not do it justice. The only way to truly experience Mexico is to go to Mexico. And if you think you're eating good salsa here in the States, go to Mexico. They serve it with guacamole at every meal. Here in Columbus you can get an avocado on sale for $1.50. So, a week of eating guacamole at just one meal a day (and fresh guacamole at that!) would be pricey. In mexico, it's a staple, and we took advantage of that as much as we could. And no, I didn't ever get sick of eating chips and salsa and guacamole!!!
I'm happy to report that I am nearly 1/2 way through my masters at Ohio State. YAY! Only 5 more quarters to go. I'm getting my masters in Human Resources, and working at the Fisher College of Business in the Career Management office. I work with companies and recruiters who want to hire Fisher students. Elwood works at Cardinal Health as a manager in the Treasury Department, and does the majority of the cooking around the house. He's a GREAT cook. And I try to be a great sous chef. Punky is our dog. She's 8, and I love dressing her up and accessorizing her for pictures. I used to think that putting clothes and things on animals was wrong, but then I realized that they get cold, and sweaters, scarves, boots, hats, etc - they're all fine to put on your dog - as long as you don't go overboard on the animal wardrobe.
I get asked "so how's married life" a lot - and it's great! Especially right now that I'm not in school during the week. More time for fun! I'll be happy to update you all as we move through 2009, but that's all I have to say for right now. We wish you all a happy, exciting, safe and merry holiday season. All the best in 2009 and we'll be in touch. For now, some photos from the past year. Enjoy! Love Megan & Elwood Ellis
