Happy Birthday Meg!

Meghan's birthday was this past Monday so a bunch of us met up to celebrate!

A Night in Philly

We spent the Monday night following our wedding in Philly. A little getaway to settle down from all of the craziness and enjoy some time together before going back to work.

The drive from Syracuse to Philly was filled with beautiful fall colors.

After we checked in to the hotel we took a walk around the city...

...and grabbed some yummy sandwiches at the indoor market.

Later that night we cozied up to the hotel bar for our favorite cocktail...

...before heading to a late dinner at Branzino's - an adorable BYOB italian restaurant.

by far the best calamari we have ever had.

we headed back to the hotel...

...and got back just as a thunderstorm was rolling in.

a perfect night away as Mr. & Mrs!

The Weekend

Our first weekend home as a married couple (!!!) and it was exactly how we wanted it to be. Lots of down time, catching up on chores, delicious food & drink, and enjoying each other's company. Perfect. On Saturday John Buss made roasted pork with balsamic onions on garlic bread with a side of cheesy mashers. Not a colorful dish but boy was it good. This guy can cook!

Thanks to Dena for the awesome pictures and collages. She rocks. More to come.

The final countdown

We're in the homestretch! This past month has been a whirlwind of crafts, planning, dress fittings, seating charts, and everything else wedding related! JB is already home in the Cuse and I head up tomorrow. We are out of control excited for Saturday! My colleagues threw me a surprise shower today. So sweet. And look at the adorable cake they had made.
