The Next Chapter...

Finally! We closed on a single family home in Alexandria the day before Thanksgiving. We will be less than half a mile from my family. Although we already closed, we are not able to move in quite yet. The couple who owned it needed a bit more time to get moved out. So, we are staying with my family until we can move in on December 5th.

Bye Bye Arlington

Wow... The day we moved out hit me harder than I thought it would. We were getting so cramped in our one bedroom condo and had become more frustrated with each month that passed. I didn't expect to be sad when we moved but I will miss Arlington. We spent 4 wonderful years in that condo and enjoyed our time there. I am also very excited to start the next chapter in life.

Here are a few photos of the empty condo:

Homecoming 2010

We went to Morgantown this past weekend for Homecoming. Here are some photos of the weekend.

PS - For all of us who loved the 80's room at Bent Willey's - I am sad to report it is no longer the 80's room. It is now the 90's room because the college kids currently in school were all born in the 90's. How sad - it is the end of a legend and an era.

Homecoming Float:
Alpha Phi & Phi Sig were partnered up. The theme was cities was cities and our float was Washington, DC. So ironic!

Nostaglia



Looking at this picture makes me think that time really flies. We are headed to Morgantown this weekend for Homecoming. Although going to Morgantown is fun, it can be a little sad at this age. I love my life and wouldn't change anything about it. However, college was such an awesome and fun time. We made so many friends and had so much fun. Oh how I miss the Bent Willey's 80's Room, Chicken Bones on Tuesdays, Back Door on Wednesdays, etc...


Anyways, Let's Go Mountaineers!

New Phone = Communication Challenges



Josh and I switched over from the Blackberry Storm to the Droid X about a week ago. I am usually pretty tech-savvy. However, this "Smart Phone" is way to "smart" for me. Hopefully I will learn how to use this phone soon!
