Something Blue Carolina

Alex and I are the cover story of a wedding magazine!  Here is the website to see it online: http://issuu.com/scbiz/docs/2010_something_blue_issue_1

A lady at Mom's school had heard that Alex and I had a rustic wedding at the Fearrington Barn and wanted to hear our story :)

Birthday Kitten

Today was Moo's 4th birthday!!  In my procrastinating ways, I made miss Moo a birthday hat.  She hated it, of course, and I came home to an apartment full of pink and purple paper fluff :)

She did agree to let it sit in her box though :)

Quick NC Trip

Alex went back to North Carolina this past weekend to watch Amy run a marathon!  I had to stay in Philly to study for my physiology final... what's new?  Amy did excellent and finished with a VERY good time!!  Alex was able to hang out with family and friends and cook some very delicious meals with his mom :)  Alex came back to Philly with half a case of our favorite wine from his parents, 11 boxes of the best girl scout cookies from my parents, and Guatemala presents from Lisa!!

Go Amy!

Happy St. Patrick's Day

Danielle made us an Irish dinner this St. Patrick's Day!  She made corned beef, potatoes, and cabbage and it was amazing :)  We had Hilary's chip dip for an appetizer and Kia's pie and our Bailey's creme brulee for dessert.  We ended this very Irish day by watching The Boondock Saints, of course.

Green St. Patrick's Day Beer

We didn't get to do this at the wedding!

Tinto

A few weeks ago, Alex and I got a special surprise in the mail from Christina and Connor: a gift card to a restaurant group that owns several restaurants downtown!  Christina said she and Connor used to love eating at a restaurant called Tinto when they lived in Philadelphia, so that is where we decided to go!  The food was amazing and we had a great time :)
 

 

Gracias Ellen!

So tonight Alex and I decided to have a special date night before another round of exams.  Thanks to Ellen, we got to shop at Whole Foods for a yummy dinner.  My chef made me pepper crusted fillet and asparagus accompanied with a cheese course.  And for dessert, bacon chocolate!!!!  It was amazing!  Thank you Ellen!
