NC State Game

• Monday, Spetember 15th was Ryan’s Birthday. We went to dinner at a new Japanese Restaurant not far from our place. • Tuesday, Ryan had softball and Abby and I went to cheer him on. • Wednesday night I babysat • Thursday we had friends over for some grilled chicken. • Friday, Ryan picked up Grammie and we drove down to Raleigh for the NC State game on Saturday. They beat ECU and it was amazing. I like to say we are good luck for State. Sunday we went to church with Grammie, Harriet and Jay and then lunch at a hiabatchi place. It was a good visit. Then we had to get back to get Grammie home and make it to another softball game.

Weekend Abby & I are on our own ...

Yesterday, Ryan left with the football team for the game in Connecticut. Last night I took Abby running and then got ready and headed up the street to Kristin & Scott’s place. They were hosting a Mexican theme night. I had a good time, but of course missed my honey! Today I slept in, took Abby running which she was way too tired so I had to bring her home sooner than I wanted. Instead I just took my bike out and rode around for a while. Then I finished up some laundry and now I am about to go babysit. I rented a couple movies for me to maybe watch over the next couple of days. Late tonight (early morning Sunday) Ryan will be coming home, but I will be sleeping. I am looking forward to spending some time with him tomorrow.

Hope all our readers are doing well! More to write in a week or so.

2nd week in September

Saturday the 6th, UVA beat Richmond and I went to the game a little late since it was raining and I had things to get done around the house. Then Sunday Ryan left to go watch UVA’s women’s golf in Maryland. Sunday night after church I went to the Brooks and Dunn Concert with three of my neighborhood girlfriends. I got free tickets from Ryan’s boss, so I was so excited to see that!

Ryan came back on Monday evening and Monday evening I Volunteered at the Hospital. Tuesday, I had my first provisional Junior League of Charlottesville Meeting. It was good and I met a few more new Charlottesville girls. Junior League is all about forming new friendships, connections along with the big part of helping out our local community by volunteering. I am looking forward to a fun year. Wednesday Ryan had a Richmond Social to attend and I just ate at home and watched the movie Juno I really liked it!

Labor Day Weekend

On a very hot day, UVA did lose to USC. Following the game, Trevor took Ryan, Kyle and I to a nice dinner at The Upstairs in Downtown Charlottesville http://theupstairscharlottesville.com/index.html. The next day, Trevor and his friend left very early for the airport and Ryan and I left in the morning for the Hodge’s lake house. We had a nice time and it turned out to be a nice couple of days.
