Hello and Merry Christmas Eve, my friends! Matt and I are driving up to Pittsburgh today to spend the holiday with his family. Our first joint married couple Christmas! In the 8 years we dated, we spent a lot of Thanksgivings together, but never Christmas, so it will be fun to be together for it this year. We got back into DC late on Friday Continue Reading …
Farewell, UNC Chapel Hill
Hello everyone! I’m back in DC after a great week in Chapel Hill. I still can’t believe that after so long I’m actually done with grad school! On Friday afternoon, the School of Public Health and our Nutrition department at UNC hosted a lovely graduation and pinning ceremony for us. The chair of our program gave a speech as well as the head Continue Reading …
Chapel Hill Highlights
Hello and happy Friday! I’ve been having a blast here in Chapel Hill this week hitting a bunch of my old favorite spots and reconnecting with friends. Besides getting my MPH and all, here are some of the highlights so far. :) --- #1 – Franklin Street Yoga, of course! You guys knew I’d hit this place up again immediately. I miss it Continue Reading …
Black Friday Hike & Running with an Old Friend
Minus having to spend the better part of yesterday working on my masters paper and presentation (I go to UNC this week to present it!), we’ve had a nice Thanksgiving break!

Mohegan Sun Girl’s Weekend
I had such a wonderful weekend away – a few of my best blogging buddies and I were treated to a girl’s weekend at Mohegan Sun in Connecticut! We planned this trip months ago and it ended up working out perfectly that I needed to be up in the area for the Reebok event the day before anyway, so when the event was over, Tina, Julie, and I drove on Continue Reading …
Date Night (& ring shopping) with Matt & A Sunset Walk
Hello friends! Sorry for the radio silence yesterday — it’s been a busy week over here and yesterday was just one of those days. You know, the type of day where you have to be at work at 7 a.m., drag yourself out of bed at 5:30, sign on to your email and discover that your PayPal account has been hacked and drained of $1,000. Sigh. PayPal is Continue Reading …
My Bachelorette Wine Tour Recap!
Hello, friends! As I mentioned, Saturday was my bachelorette party, which was a trip out to Virginia wine country with 16 of my girlfriends! It was so fun to have such a big group of my favorites all together. :) My high school BFF and matron of honor in our wedding, Jenny, hosted the shindig and did a fabulous job organizing everything! She Continue Reading …
Girls’ Night: Yoga & Homemade Pizza
Morning! I had another fun exercise + dinner date with my college BFF Turner on Tuesday night! We had plans to go running but it was stormy out; we decided it was perfect yoga weather, instead. :) We hit up Stroga in Adams Morgan for a 50 minute power hour class. I was in need of some stretching — it felt GOOD! After yoga, we headed back to Continue Reading …
