Happy New Year to all of our family and friends. We had such a blessed year in 2010 and are excited to see what 2011 has in store for us. We are most looking forward to being back in Cincinnati and spending time with those we love. Below is a 90-second New Year video I made frame by frame with post-it notes.

On May 28th, Kelly and I attended* our first football match (soccer game) here in Croatia. We had a blast; it was a very fun time. A month ago, the match was shaping up to be a huge deal, but Hajduk hasn’t performed as well in the past month, causing the match to lose some of its luster.

Shortly before Jay and I left for Split, we got ourselves a going away gift: a Flip Mino HD Camcorder so we could record some of the sights and sounds of our adventures. It is nice and compact, so it easily fits in one of our pockets or my purse. I am never hesitant to bring it along because it is so tiny, light weight, and easy to use. The video quality is a bit shaky, but otherwise, it’s pretty good.
