Home Cooked Meals

This was the night of my birthday dinner.
We made eggplant and chicken parmesan.
G made her homemade sauce recipe.
My cousin made the garlic bread
It was delish.

p.s. That is not my yellow Mazda Miata...I wish.

I turned 30 over the weekend of Thanksgiving.
The boy and 5 of my closest friends took me to a quiet city on the West Coast of Florida.
We actually swam near dolphins.
It was perfect.

A Key on the West Coast

Beer in a cup and a walk on the beach?
Yes, please. I'll take two.

This patio faced the ocean...

Loving Moose's sock/sandal combo in the lower left.

We climbed a tree

That had washed up on the beach.

The Moose's Engagement Party

Saturday night we celebrated with friends that were engaged just 2 weeks before us.
The party was beautiful, as was the future bride and her groom.

We took her to MAC

To get her make-up done for her party.
:)
p.s. again, I was the photographer.

The Day Before

I was the photographer in this picture - we were making cookies.
It was fun preparing for the engagement party for the Moose's on Saturday.

Pood's Birthday

Happy Birthday Poodle!

Monsters are Scary

My mom made the 8' monsters that stood behind us in these pictures.

BOO!

Halloween was fun this year.
My mom had a raging party.
And all of our friends had the time of their lives.

Wearing a blazer made me feel

NYC Chic
HA!

The Morning After

We walked around NYC in search of a great bagel place.

There was a Pole

There was a pole, and Halloween decorations.
Why not?

Under my Umbrella, ella, ella, ey ey ey

It rained after we got out of "Billy Elliott - The Musical".
But it kind of enhanced the romance of the city.

We Met the Girl

And she was lovely.
Congrats bro :)

Best. 24. Hours. Ever.

It was a quick trip to NYC, less than 24 hours spent in the Big Apple...
but wow did we have fun.

NY NY

The week of October 19th we took a trip to NYC.

Missing the Platinum

I'm kind of missing the platinum - what do you think?

Magic Moments

I loved seeing my friend T get married, she was a stunning bride.

This weekend we got to attend the baby shower for my cousins.

It was so sweet. And such a magic moment.

(since I don't have a pic, I included this one from T's wedding that gives the same warm, fuzzy, butterfly effect...)
