This past weekend we went to Washington, DC for my cousin Reed's wedding!
We saw the Whitehouse...

Some silly fountain..somehow I ended up getting wet!

the Lincoln Memorial....

the capital...

Julia Child's kitchen at the Smithsonian..

Kitchen updates...

Brian & I painted our kitchen!

The color is called passive...anti of our personalities right! ;)

Brian also installed a new light in the back hallway!

We think it looks great with the black & white floor and our island!

I love the new color--byebye ketchup & mustard colors...

This fall has been really busy and fun! Besides heading to East Lansing for MSU football games we have been doing other random things: here we are with friends celebrating Ben's birthday!

A week ago I volunteered at work for our "Lunch on the Run" benefiting breast cancer..we raised $2300 that day!!

Kenny Chesney Concert in Indy...

A few weekends ago we headed down to Indianapolis to visit our friends Jeff & Kelly and we all went to the Kenny Chesney concert...it was SO fun!!

My two favorite acts: Kenny and Sugarland

We tailgated before the game...everything was tiki theme!
