As mentioned here, I recently did some “damage” (or so he calls it) to Sasha’s closet, throwing out stuff that he had bought 10+ years ago (seriously?). Since then, I’ve done some shopping for him. His look yesterday? Very J.Crew, i.e. nautical prep. Bry made a sailing joke when he saw him, and Sasha swears he looks like Popeye. I believe it looks stylish, but I’m biased.

On Wednesday, Sasha’s best friend, Brian, and his wife, Ashley, had their first child. This was the first offspring for “The Buds” (as they call themselves), so this adorable little guy is a pretttty big deal around here. We went to visit him on Thursday evening and fell in love. He’s as cute as a button and the calmest baby I’ve ever held. Look at those teensy, tiny little fingers. How perfect is he?
Another beautiful wedding captured by the very talented Taylor Lord – see the pictures below for photographic evidence. Of course, I’m drawn to the chevron patterns, bright blue and yellow color pattern, but most of all: the bridesmaids necklaces. The shot with all of the variations is ah-may-zing.
This sign is incredible.
Thank you, AT&T, for having the slowest wi-fi ever in Apt. 335. This disturbance caused me to temporarily relocate to Agora, where the coffee tastes like heaven and the internet connection moves at, well, Olympic speed. I have only ever been to Agora once for vino and loved the atmosphere (makes me very excited about Athens in December!). It’s full of Montrose-types, chatting, caffeinating, and fiddling around on their Macs. I brought my camera, as the setting is very easy to shoot, and I wanted practice. I took 59 shots, but narrowed them down for your viewing. Go and visit if you’re in the area. Get the hazelnut coffee – amazing.
I received good news on Monday – my first promotion! All of my friends have been so sweet and supportive. I arrived at Sasha’s to a bouquet of flowers, champagne, a ‘Congrats’ balloon, and the most perfect card. I was tickled. On Tuesday, my parents met us at my favorite restaurant (Benjy’s) for dinner. Can we talk about those Brussel sprouts – please?? They are to die for. I love spending time with my parents- they are hysterical. Pictures below – do you like Sasha’s new J. Crew shirt? I got it for him as a gift, given that I donated over 50 of his clothing items to Goodwill last week. I am going to get a similar J. Crew plaid shirt – check it out, I’m in love.
