Happy Halloween

Happy Halloween! To celebrate Halloween we went to dinner with friends before heading to a couple of Wharton Halloween parties. We ate at Tequila's where we enjoyed our first Mexican meal since we moved to the East Coast.


Check our festive costumes! Marty is the “King” and Sarah is a “fat” cat. Next year we will have a little one to dress in costume as well.

Dinner in New York

This past Saturday night we made a short getaway to New York City to have dinner with several friends from San Francisco. The dinner was planned by our friend Derrick, a passionate food and wine connoisseur (see his blog here: http://obsessionwithfood.com/). We ate at Blue Hill in a private back room where we enjoyed a multi-course meal with wonderful wines paired with each course. The evening began with appetizers and champagne (Sarah is drinking sparkling cider in the photo below).



The group included Ginger and Kurt (now in Boston), Eric (now in New York), Young, Jeff, Jenn, Chris, Winnie, Sean-Michael, Ling, Nancy, Derrick, and Melissa (all from San Francisco).



All told, it was a wonderful evening full of great food, wine, and conversation. We finished our desserts and coffee around midnight.

Baby Shower

Sarah just returned form Sacramento, California. She was there visiting friends and family for the last time before our baby arrives.

While at home Sarah had 2 baby showers! The first was thrown by her family. The baby received so many clothes that he may never have to wear the same thing twice!
Here are pictures from the shower.







These are pictures of the second shower Sarah had. This shower was thrown by her friends from high school. The shower had an ocean sailing theme. April made the cutest cake, Brandy hosted the games and Lynnette had everyone over to her new house.

Mother Daughter Weekend

Annual Mother and Daughter Weekend

Every year, Sarah and her mother take a special trip with Patty, Rema, Natalie, and Holly. This year the mothers and daughters went to Sutter’s Creek, Jackson, and Apple Hill. Holly brought along her 8 month old son Elliot. We had a great trip.






Sarah turned 28 while the mothers and daughters were together. We went out to dinner and had a delicious cake.
