Game Day

January 15, 2011

Brand spankin’ new shoes that were a Christmas gift (thanks Danny)… Check. Goofy looking hat (that I actually forgot in the car)…. Check. Picture with a National Champ… Check. (After this was taken I had a moment where I realized that I am roughly 15 years older than Jon Scheyer and promptly realized that asking […]

Snow Day!

January 10, 2011

Here in coastal NC there is one thing above all others that gets everyone all worked up – snow.  Seriously. Mention that a tropical storm or hurricane is out in the Atlantic headed our way, and the general sentiment is, “Eh, whatever.”  But, the minute that the weather forecasters even mention snow, people start freaking […]

Welcome, 2011

January 1, 2011

Uh oh – it looks like someone might have had a LITTLE bit too much fun last night! We kept things pretty low key last night and had some friends over to help us usher in 2011. What can I say?  Clearly we know how to throw a raging party. I have never been more […]

Breakfast of Champions??

December 30, 2010

Every year my mom gives us a book full of coupons for local restaurants and businesses.  It saves us a ton of money over the course of the year because a lot of the restaurants that we frequent have coupons.  Usually, I wind up using our coupons and then raiding my moms book and stealing […]

Christmas 2010 (in pictures)

December 26, 2010

I hope that everyone had a wonderful Christmas.  Ours was busy, starting with Christmas Eve with Danny’s extended family.  We spent Christmas Day at various places around town.  I was really hoping that we would get some snow on Christmas Day, but, it wasn’t meant to be.  Wilmington got a very small dusting this morning, […]

Decking the Halls

December 21, 2010

This past Sunday was the one year anniversary of the move from the condo into our current house.  It kind of snuck up on me – but, looking back, I am not sure what we were thinking when we decided to move the weekend before Christmas. When we first made an offer on the house, […]

Viva Las Vegas – Part 3

December 13, 2010

We unintentionally managed to schedule our trip to Vegas so that it coincided with the following events: The Las Vegas Marathon, a country music awards show and the Wrangler National Rodeo.  The country music awards AND rodeo were both based out of our hotel (The MGM Grand) and, because of this, it was a country […]

Viva Las Vegas – Part 2

December 12, 2010

After meeting up with Julie/Nate for a bit of walking the Strip, we stumbled upon a giant slot machine…. ..and did not win a cent.  However, Danny did manage to capture quite possibly the worst picture ever taken of me (see below): Later that evening, we headed out to see The Blue Man Group at […]

Viva Las Vegas – Part 1

December 10, 2010

All of the suckiness that happened this year made planning any sort of vacation really complicated.  Even though we had the time off, we were very hesitant to travel too far away from home because we never really knew what was going to happen with Danny’s dad.  When our friends Julie and Nathan decided to […]

Reunited

December 9, 2010

We got back from Vegas late last night.  It was a fun getaway and I will do another post all about our vacation.  For now, however, I just want to say that I am SO glad to be home. Of course, it does make it easier knowing that I still have a couple of more […]
