More Gelato Please

March 14th - 18th was Mr. T's last official break in school. From here on out, we are at the mercy of his rotations for Christmas, Thanksgiving, and any sort of "summer" vacation (except during July of his 3rd year where he gets a break for board study - super fun and relaxing I'm sure).

So, to take advantage of Mr. T's last “Spring Break” and to celebrate a slightly premature 5-year anniversary, we treated ourselves mid-March with a 10-day trip to Italy!!

Needless to say, it was W-O-N-D-E-R-F-U-L! We flew into Naples, marveled at Pompeii, drove the Amalfi Coast, conquered Rome, partied in Florence, tasted Tuscany, relaxed in Pisa, and got lost in Venice.

It was a great break for us both and we hope to go back again someday. I included some of our favorite pictures below. Enjoy!
