The Big 2-4

Monday, March 26, 2012

So this is late. Adam's birthday was last Monday!! The big 2-4....or as I like to say, officially in his mid 20s. Last Sunday, we celebrated at his family's house - Adam and Nathan share the same birthday, so we killed two birds with one stone.



I think I've made it pretty clear that I don't cook, but for some reason I always decide to make the hardest things for Adam. (You may recall the eggs benedict I made him for our anniversary?) So for his birthday I decided to make cheese fondue! We got a fondue maker (which I later found out was just a small bowl to hold the fondue) for our wedding, but have never used it. I got kind of creative when it came to what we were going to dip... zucchini, jalapenos, four cheese ravioli, bread, brats, tater tots and pizza rolls. SO delicious and SO unhealthy - our favorite. :)


Since his mom had made him a delish red velvet cake, he decided he only wanted a cookie cake from me. This actually turned out to be the best thing ever since I was still cooking the fondue/sweating profusely when Adam got home from practice. I never would have had time to make a cake!


The day also happened to be the best day EVER since he found out he got the supply teaching job at Lassiter!!!!!!!! Talk about the best birthday!!

We decided to celebrate his birthday this past weekend so our friends could join us. Adam's favorite day is St. Patty's Day, and since he couldn't come celebrate with us in Savannah I found a fun Irish bar called Johnnie MacCracken's for us to go to on Saturday night. It was such a super fun night, and we were so glad our friends were able to make it! Somehow I didn't snap one picture of Adam that night, but it's probably because he was too busy running around like a crazy person with Kirklan, his friend from school who came down to celebrate. 

But here are some other shots from the night...





Such a fun night with some of our favorite people!!

SIDE NOTE: Saturday also happened to be Mitchell's prom, so of course Adam and I had to crash the picture party. He looked so handsome!




Super Bowl XLVI

Monday, February 6, 2012

Adam and I have been looking forward to this past weekend for months. We were throwing a Super Bowl party at our new place, and were really stoked to finally show off our new digs. And to top it all off, Matelyn came in town! 

Adam is in the middle of baseball tryouts, so he has been at the field until about 10pm everyday. I hate not seeing much of him at night, but he is really loving it which makes me super happy. Since I was all alone on Friday night, I made the trek down to Midtown to join Matelyn, Jared, Xavier and Lindsay for a drink a Tin Lizzy's.




I'm currently training for my first half marathon on April 22, and last week was my first official week of training. I polished off the week with a 4.2 mile run on Saturday and I was so proud of myself. I'm starting to think that maybe this half marathon won't actually kill me. Maybe.

The rest of Saturday was spent cleaning and prepping for the Super Bowl party, and then Mate and I headed over to the 'rents house for dinner and drinks. It's always a fun night with Karen and Matt, and Saturday was no exception. We had a delish dinner at Bistro VG and then had a nightcap (my dad's words, not mine) at Aspen's. Mate and I headed back over to our house to pick up Adam, and then we finished the night at The Place. A super sketchy bar right by our house with an average clientele age of about 55. BEST PEOPLE WATCHING.





Adam barely slept on Saturday night, because Sunday was his Christmas morning. He was ridiculously excited about this Super Bowl party which actually worked in my favor because he was more than willing to help me finish clean up and get ready. I think I watched about 2 minutes of the actual game, but had a great time catching up with friends.



My little brother would kill me if he knew I was going to post this picture, but it's just too adorable to pass up. He threw a Super Bowl party on Sunday, and asked this lovely little lady to prom during halftime.That delish cookie cake says "Will you go to prom with me?" SO CUTE.



It was another wonderful weekend with family and friends, and Adam and I continue to be beyond blessed with such amazing people in our lives.
