Dinner on our new patio set

Ryan and I had our first dinner on our new outdoor set. We bought our favorite umbrella from Pottery Barn - Fiesta Blue to complete the outdoor set. We can't wait to have friends over to bbq!

New Jersey Weekend

This past weekend, Ryan and Krysta drove to New Jersey to hang out with his parents and brother. While in NJ, we went to dinner on Saturday night in Princeton with Rob and his friend Katie. We had a great time! We went to one of Ryan/Rob's favorite restaurants Theresa's then went to the Triumph Brewing Company and enjoyed a beer sampler.


On Sunday, Krysta attended Jessica Smith's Bridal Shower in Orange, NJ. Jessica and Mike are getting married on 8.08.08 in West Orange and Ryan is one of Mike's groomsmen.

Iron Bridge Wine Company

On Saturday, Ryan and I went to dinner with Jeff, Elise, Jon and Joleen to celebrate Jeff & Elise's move to Denver, CO. We went to Iron Bridge in Old Town Warrenton. When Jeff and Ryan lived in Columbia, MD, we used to eat at that location. Now they have expanded to VA and we are so excited! We wish Jeff and Elise the best in their new journey together!

Family visit from Maine...

On May 22, Krysta's Grandma, Aunt Barbara, Jordyn (4), JR (4), Madison (3) and Morgan (3) came to visit. We had a lot of fun while they were in town! Here are a few pictures from some of the adventures we took them on!

Ryan's Weekend

While the girls celebrated with Erin, Ryan also had a busy weekend. On Friday, he played golf at Fairfax National with Tom and Dave. On Saturday, Ryan did some work around the house including picking up our new outdoor set from Crate and Barrel! We have it set up, just need to put the protective coating on the wood, pick up an umbrella/cushions and we are all set!

Erin's Bridal Shower

This weekend we celebrated Erin's Bridal Shower with a pink and orange themed brunch shower. I must say, the bridesmaids did a fabulous job! After the shower, the girls traveled to Lizzy's home in Richmond. We went to see Sex and the City then had dinner at Lizzy's and a girls night.

Occoquan Craft Fair

The Occoquan Craft Fair is an event that I look forward to every year! While I prefer going in the fall, my mom, aunt and Ryan's mom decided to brave the heat and go to the Spring show. I did get some cute things for the house but after two hours of walking around in 105 degree heat, we decided to call it a day. We can't wait for the fall show on September 27th!
