Tagged Twice.


Lincoln and I had a FABULOUS thanksgiving at my cousin Kimberly's house in North Carolina. However, I will have to get to that later... over the holiday weekend I was tagged by two of my friends Kathryn and Hailey. So I am going to combine the tags into one... dun dun dun dun...
 
5 Things that make me happy/ High School Tag

1. Did you date someone from your high school?
Yep. And even though I didn't know Lincoln in high school, I married him and he is totally my favorite. He really makes me happy. 


2. Were you a Nerd in high school?
Yep. Still am. I heart learning. And I really love politics. That is why working at the US Capitol for a Congressman in Washington DC really makes me happy.




3. Were you a Party Animal in high school?
Yep. Still am. I am 100% pure extrovert material. Even though I am married, the partying hasn't stopped, from Fall Balls, to girls nights on Tuesdays that last until 2am, I love to be social. It makes me happy.







4. Where did you go if you skipped a day in high school?
When I did skip a day, I would usually stay home and either sleep in, or take a nap. I LOVE sleeping. It makes me happy.  

Now when I skip school it is usually because we are traveling. I LOVE to travel!!! But I especially love to travel with Lincoln. (best travel companion ever!)





5. Have you gained weight since high school?
Yes and No. If I did, it is gone now. My face has even slimmed down since then.  I am more active now than I was in high school. (I never played any sports.) Now I LOVE to do pilates and yoga, and go on bike rides. I will even be teaching a pilates class for this Tuesday girls night if you want to come...

Fall Ball- or just an excuse to go to "Prom" again.

A couple of weeks ago Lincoln and I went to my Master's program's Fall Ball.  Lincoln and I throughly enjoyed showing off our wicked awesome dance moves to all my friends at school. They thought we were "so cool." It totally increased my popularity. People now say hi to me more in the halls... 


And of course we had a classic "prom" picture taken. 
How cute.

New York, New York!



Lincoln and I purchased bus tickets to NYC for BOTH of us for only $22 round trip on Boltbus. It was great to be able to visit my good friend Rachel and her cute family. We also did some site seeing and shopping. I heart New York!









Do you see that the bird is standing on one leg?
















And of course, Lincoln and I visited another dead president. 
This time we paid tribute to Ulysses S. Grant




The famous Sienfeld Restaurant. The food is really cheap and really good.

I love this Place

And I Love this place too. 
{Lincoln and I were able to do a session at the temple, it was Lincoln's first time. 
It sure is beautiful inside.}

We LOVE New York and we were so glad we could see Rachel again! 
It really was a great way to spend the weekend.
