My Parents Are Visiting...


Tomorrow my parents are driving from North Carolina, to visit for the weekend. I am super excited. Being a small town girl and living 8 hours away from home gets overwhelming at times. Since we just moved, my parents are coming to see and stay at our new house. I haven't seen my parents since Christmas and they have only been to D.C. once. Last time they were here we did a lot of sight seeing, such as the mall area. This time I am taking them out to a nice restaurant and we are going to Georgetown. I'm so excited, it's a great way for me to spend my Spring Break. I'll follow up and post pictures.

Valentine's Weekend

This was Ross and I first Valentine's Days together. Saturday morning we woke up and made breakfast together. We had several errands to run on Saturday such as: Target, Home Depot, and Circuit City.

Before dinner, Ross gave me two dozen roses that were absolutely beautiful!!

Ross had the drinks and the appetizer. He opened a bottle of wine and made homemade tomato basil soup. I had the main course. I made a london broil that I had been marinating over night and diced potatoes. Everything was delicious.

After dinner, we went to a local wine bar near our new house and enjoyed a glass of wine together.

Our first Valentine's Day together was perfect!!

It's getting close...


It's finally here.. Thursday, Ross and I are moving to Arlington, Va. I'm so excited. We have been planning this move for about three months now. The official move in day in Thursday, February 5th.

I do hate moving, but I'm ready to be closer to school, restaurants, and friends. Making the commute everyday from Falls Church, Va has been frustrating. In the mornings, it take me up to an hour to drive about 12 miles.. Needless to say, walking to school will be awesome.

We are moving into a town house close to the Ballston Metro.
We have a big yard, three bedrooms, and 2 baths. Plenty of room for us.
I'll keep you posted with pictures from our new house.
