Starting out

July 24, 20131 Comment

So, I’ve been here a full week, and I’m loving it. It gets a little lonely during the day while Jay is at work, but the projects are never ending so I’m always busy. I really want to share pictures of our new house (we’re both in heaven, we live in 3x the space as our apartment!) but I want everything to be done first.

This past weekend my Mom & brother were up here for a family party, Jay and I went to a concert, and we hung out with family at the pool. We can’t wait until the place is all done and I am working again so that we can get in the full flow of life up here. In the meantime, I’m enjoying getting to be with Rondo all day and putting together furniture…I am the master of all tools now.

Here are just a few pictures from lately…

Well, we moved, we had a long weekend together in our new house, and now I’m back in NYC! Ay! I am working at my job for a couple more weeks down in the city and will permanently move up to be with Jay next Tuesday. I can’t wait to be there and get going on our house. We have done so much work already, but there are a still million things to do.

Here are some pictures from life lately…

(our new backyard!)

(spent the 4th with the cutest kids around)

(falling asleep sitting up…he has so much space to run now!)

(our guest room that I love and Jay hates. the disaster of furniture boxes that is our living room.)

(back in the sweltering city. rondo trying to get packed. the plaza construction looks like the plaza!)

I know I always say we are busy, but this weekend was really crazy…and for us to say it’s crazy is something. Friday, I ran into a friend who was moving the very next day (by chance on the subway!) and ended up getting to say goodbye to her at her apartment, went to meet Jay (who had been celebrating his last day of work!) and then stayed out way too late with friends.

Saturday we went to Smorgasburg, a bbq with friends, and Postal Service at Barclay’s. It may sound silly, but having things that both Jay and I were loving long before we loved each other (like PS) makes me so happy!

Sunday I went home to celebrate my other main man, Dad! We had a yummy brunch, family walk, relaxed in the house, and went to the fruit stand. Dad, love you, you know this. (see ridiculous cat pet below)

When I got home Sunday night, we decided to go to see a late show of Superman. Yes, I’m tired today, but it was worth it! Nothing like a summer superhero blockbuster!

Hope everyone had a great weekend!

Last night we went to see Frightened Rabbit at Terminal 5. T5 may be the worst venue ever (or maybe I’m just too short), but the show was fantastic! Also, we got to go with my brother and his gf and some friends which was so fun. Loved having them in the city for the night!
