So, as sometimes happens in life, I stumbled upon a crock pot today...

So, my co-workers and I are coming back from lunch today, and, thankfully we parked "out back," assuming all the good parking spots were spoken for, when all the sudden, as we walk toward the door, we stumble upon a crock pot. Yes, a crock pot. Plugged into an outside outlet and everything...

It's the little things in life... :)

Tarsha's Finish Line!

It was SO cool to see my walking buddy, Tarsha, cross the finish line of the Boston 3-Day, 60-mile walk to cure breast cancer! Blisters, sweat, aches, and pains accompanied her, she did it and I'm so proud!

This is the victory walk all the participants did at the closing ceremonies. I'm surprised I found her at all!

And, this, my friends, was one of her most "colorful" supporters, Ben (her brother-in-law). Love it!

Our Day in Beantown with Stephen

We went to the Museum of Science and visited the Theater of Electricity (which was awesome) and Mathematica (above). I couldn't resist taking a picture of these two Math Geniuses as "Mathematical Models." Tee hee...

On our way to find something delicious for lunch, we found this disturbing ad for cheap divorces. All I can say is :(

After the Museum of Science, trying to get on a Duck Tour (they were sold out), and visiting an awesome used-book store (http://www.commonwealthbooks.com/), we made it to Fenway in time for our first Red Sox game!

Had to get a pick together... first Red Sox game is a BIG DEAL!

And... we won!

Randall and I just went on one of the funnest camping trips ever! It was only like 36 hours, basically, but it felt so much longer. One of my favorite things about camping is sitting around and playing games, poking the campfire with a stick, eating smores, or just talking. We DEFINITELY laughed a lot, became smore professionals, and annoyed the fire with our poking sticks :)

For detail-oriented people, we were the Lafayette Campground in Franconia, NH. It was spectacular.

I'm so thankful for the friends God has given us and the support we've needed as we start out on our marriage journey. It's been a blast and it seems to only get better :)

My Bike Had Enough

Well, folks, I'm sitting on the side of the road with my bike totally out of commission... his poor chain broke about 5 minutes into my ride home from work :(

Thankfully, no scrapes, no bruises, and there was no asphalt involved (praise God)!

The cool part is that my friend, Tarsha, is on the way to my rescue! :)

So, for now, I will enjoy the breeze on this perfect day a little less sweatier!

Not Just a Taste


Some of our new friends, Jacob and Emilie, invited us over for a wine-tasting on Saturday night... But, though the wine and cheese part was superb, it was more than that!


As you can see, Randall is thinking hard about what a "Timarou" is... guesses, anyone?

A. A South American tribal drum
B. A nomadic tribe from the Sahara
C. A little brown buffalo

Well, according to the game, Balderdash, it's "C", a little brown buffalo! WE made up the other two definitions!

Boy did we have fun! Especially after a nice wine-tasting :)
