John and I have just recently relocated from DC to the Cape Cod area due to a job opportunity for him. We're really enjoying being back near the ocean and the laidback lifestyle that comes with it. We're expecting our first child this June and are really excited for all the adventures that will bring.

All is well in the mid-west, but I'm looking for an excuse to take my husband up to my old hometown.... Reunion 2005?   Hope all is well with everyone and I often wonder what my fellow Mercy Alums are up to! Good luck to all! (06/04)

Hi guys. It's been awhile. I've been getting a kick out of reading what everyone's been up to. I think it's great! Me, I've been hanging out in Cincinnati, living with a Henry-dog and Benji-cat and working at an auction house - Cowan's Auctions (www.cowanauctions.com). It's fun, keeps me busy and out of trouble, and helps feed the little furry critters - which as we all know, need their treats! (10/06)
