Well, we’re here! It took me about ten minutes to adjust to our apartment and Matt and I were out exploring the neighborhood. Matt’s company helped us find a place to sub-lease and it’s very cute! Oh how I’ve missed living in a place with a sunny bedroom (our Durham apt is like a cave)! I could get used to this:) We are within a short walk of adorable shops and restaurants in an area known as Virginia Highland. Lucky…

Today’s the start of yet another adventure. I’m driving Matt down to Atlanta today because he starts his internship on Monday, but I’ll have to come back to finish my last week at work. Anyone have any recommendations for things to do in Atlanta?? I hear there’s a neat festival going on in our neighborhood. I’ve haven’t spent much time there aside from the ’96 Olympics, and I’m pumped to have a weekend to explore a new place. I’ll never forgot…
We ended our beach trip with one last champagne celebration and our tradition of beach donuts on Tuesday morning! And now I’m back and home, finishing up my second-to-last week of work and frantically packing for our ten-week trip to Atlanta (I’m driving Matt down Friday and then returning to finish the school year). Between our trip to Boston, our engagement, the family beach trip, the end of the school year, packing and moving to Atlanta, trying to figure out…
Cause I’m doin’ the vacation thing, a picture heavy post for you: Spiked my fruit smoothie with rum:) Kath says the baby is lovin’ the ocean breezes… We witnessed a beach wedding and a perfect rainbow! I didn’t think my fish tacos were very good:( but my ice cream pie was a HUGE hit. Drinks at the Tiki Bar! And a lovely dinner out! Home tomorrow:(…
My family and I are at the beach for the long weekend! Because of Matt’s internship, we won’t be able to do a beach week this summer, so we came early. We were the last to arrive, but my family saved “the engagement suite” for Matt and I! Just kidding – all the rooms are really nice. We are in a condo at Carolina beach and I’m very impressed. They have everything you could ever need here. I might not…
We’re finally back to normalcy after a fun-filled weekend. We went up to Boston to visit our friends Lauren and Evan and to attend Lauren’s bridal shower. Gosh I miss it there! We spent all day on Friday just walking around, visiting our favorite spots. We started bright and early in Quincy market and walked all the way to our old neighborhood near Northeastern. We stopped for lunch at the MET Bar on Newbury street and enjoyed a wonderful glass…
Just taking a quick breather here to say hello. We drove straight from the airport to my parent’s house because we’re getting up up 5:45 to attend Matt’s sister’s graduation from Wake Forest in the morning! We had an absolutely perfect weekend – the weather was phenomenal and the food fantastic. Being back was bittersweet though because we sure do miss our city and our friends! And the bridal shower was a huge success! Recap coming tomorrow…night!…
Howdy. How are you? You know it’s bad when you take two Tylenol PM and still can’t sleep. Talk about a zombie. Now I know why Michael Jackson kept upping his dose. Miraculously, I felt a billion times better when I woke up and got to work today. I’m really plowing through my to-do list and I will meet all my deadlines very soon! T minus 3 weeks to go!!! After work, Matt helped me throw together a fabulous summer…
The rest of our trip involved wine – lots of swirling, sipping, and savoring in the beautiful Virginia countryside. We stopped at four wineries on the drive up to Charlottesville on Friday. Delfosse was our first stop and by far my favorite in terms of flavor. The owner is french and many of the reds were full-bodied and the whites slightly sweet. We bought a bottle of Chardonnay, which was a big surprise seeing as we’re generally red people. Our…
