May 2014

I can’t believe May is over already!

Friday, May 16th was our 5th wedding anniversary :-D. We had planned to go to an all  you can eat Brazilian steak house and watch Captain America 2, but Ben wasn’t feeling too great (no sleep + worked too much – grading, going to a conference, working on his own papers…you know the story 😉 so we decided to be more low key and just went to our favorite Indian food place, Spice 6, and got FroYo. Then we took a nap and I picked up my sister at the airport at 2am!

I had a fun with my sister visiting — we did the Ridiculous Obstacle Course 5k, went shopping, ate too much, and hung out with my Grandparents & family in MD! I finally made to Georgetown – where we had brunch at Farmers, Fishers, & Bakers, shopped, and had Russian food at Mari Vanna’s.

For Memorial Weekend, we had fun having Ben’s family over for a BBQ, games, and archery! And we also watched Captain America and tried Qdoba Mexican food (kind of like Chipotle, but had really good queso) in a post anniversary celebration.

What else did we do in May? We celebrated Mother’s Day with Ben’s family, went to Chevy’s with the finance phd students, and we had a fun BBQ with some friends – about 14 adults and 12 kids. (I didn’t know bean bags could entertain kids for so long lol!) And the sadness of friends moving away this summer has begun :-(. Lots of coworkers leave each summer (since my RA position is only for 2-3 years) and some friends from church are graduating and moving on to bigger and better things!
