House Moving- It’s Almost Done!

House Moving- It’s Almost Done!

Ryan and I went to Currituck this weekend.  We had another one of those 36 hour visits which are thoroughly exhausting.
We arrived Saturday at noon, just in time for Ryan to join my Dad and about 3000 other men for the Knotts Island Hunters Feast.  The Hunters Feast is an annual charity event that supports [...]

Remembering Pawpaw

Me and Ryan with my Grandparents at our wedding:

It has been two months since my Pawpaw’s funeral, as a reminder of him, I have posted the video we played at his funeral.
I think it is beautiful.

We will always miss you Pawpaw.

But this year we were amazed by the value we got for the price. [...]

I am very behind.
Anyway, we were shoveling snow, the snow which, thankfully is beginning to melt.

We had very little trouble with drifting snow at our house, but we have a [...]

As I mentioned in the beach house update, the primary reason for our visit to Currituck this past weekend was to attend Danielle’s baby shower.  I, sadly, took very few photos at the shower, but at least the few I did take turned out great!

This past weekend my friend/neighbor growing up/like-a-sister, Cara, came up to visit.  We had a blast on Saturday, at Massanutten.  We had a nice rotation going: a few hours skiing, an hour of beer drinking, a few hours skiing, etc.   I have pictures of our ski trip, but we took the Xsi (just in [...]

This isn’t a very good photograph, but I love it anyway!
