Ciao Ciao!

Ciao!

I am not sure if there are people on here that do not have access to facebook but just in case....

I will post a few pics and updates!

I only have 9 days left! Then I am going home to Michigan, coming home to NC on The 2nd of July, then hanging out with Matt for the rest of the summer!

I have been to some really cool places so far... The Vatican, Trevi Fountain (one of my favorite places), Sistine Chapel, some of the coolest churches ever!, Tuscany, and soon Capri!

See yall all soon! (p.s. I got made fun of for saying yall! I had to explain to not only the NY people but also the Italians)

I did not get to go to a bunch of the places I wanted to but a friend of mine has offered to come back with me after graduation! We were gonna go for Spring Break next year but I am going to Costa Rica instead :) WOOHOO!

So here are some pics!

When in Rome...

Hey my fab family!

I hope everything is going well :) I miss yall! I hope the BBQ is a blast. I will be home in July for wedding planning but, Matt prob won't be home :(

I am on my way to Rome as we speak. I am sitting in Chicago (5 hours into my layover) and will be going to Rome at 5pm tonight!!! I will make sure to post a bunch of pics and keep yall up to date on what is going on :) I got a super cool new camera so keep an eye out for them!

Love yall!

KT and Matt

disregard my singing :)

Dont listen to me singing, just enjoy the flashback to 5 guys dancing in all white in front of an airplane on TRL.

Backstreet's Back, ALRIGHT!

complete with the cheesey costumes...



and dance moves!






it was amazing!

i felt like a 12 year old again. and it was just as great as it would have been if it happened when i was 12!

WOW! It has been a long time!

So I noticed that nobody has been posting :( So I will post! Matt and I are doing okay... hours got cut at work so that kinda sucks but in general we are good! There has not been much wedding planning going on but school is going well lol! I will be back in Asheville for Spring Break but will be working with Mountain Area Housing Opportunities the entire time! It has been kinda boring around here.... I am taking my GREs a week from Saturday and I am scared to death, I am taking a practice LSAT the weekend after that... Matt is looking for Engineering jobs near Chapel Hill so if I get into grad school we know where to look! I think that is about it! I miss yall and can not wait to come home and see everybody!

P.S. I am going to Italy and I got my passport!!!!

and now i know

why cakes cost so much!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I found a pic of a cute cake for my friend's baby shower. too bad it was gonna cost $150! so we decided to make it on our own. this is what we were aiming for:

and this is what we got!!!!!!!!!!!!

just had to show the world..... we made it. :) wooo that thing is priceless sure did not want to cut it!!!

<3>

Happy Birthday!

Happy Birthday Diana and Don! Hope today is as special as you both are!

I think most people already know but....

Matt and I are engaged! :) We do not have a date set yet and we have no idea where it is gonna be but I promise yall will all be the first ones to know!! Love yall! Hope your new years are going well !!!

Can't wait to see him. and everyone else! woo 17 days til Christmas in Greenwood!
