Thanksgiving & My 23rd Birthday!

This Thanksgiving was spent in Maryland with Will's brother, Jay. We had a great week with him, and enjoyed some much needed relaxation!

Even though there were only three of us, I cooked the whole shabang (including a 13 lb. turkey!). I simply adore Thanksgivig food, so I couldn't go with out any of the traditional fixings! Needless to say, we will be eating leftovers for a loong time. No complaints, here, though :).

The yummy food:

Beautiful flowers from Mom and Dad Guthrie. Thank You!!

Even Diggy enjoyed his own meal:

This past Sunday was my Birthday, and Will surprised me with tickets to see Mamma Mia! the off Broadway producton. It was a beautiful theater!

Boy the Hard Rock Cafe does weird things on your bday! :)

Let's not forget the cute kitties :)

Fall in Charm City

It has been awhile since our last post, mainly because we are super busy! I thought I would put up a quick update on life.

Will has been hard at work in school. He has been doing very well, but continues to stress over his grades (which are all great :).

Here he is molding his wax tooth. Quite the complicated project, but he seems to have mastered it!

Work has been very busy for me (thank God!). It started off a bit slow, but now that my client base is growing, I am seeing the rewards of my work! I am also very excited to be doing hair for a wedding in the city next weekend. I will post pictures!

Here are my fabulous co-workers:

The weather here is one thing that I am really enjoying about Baltimore. Yesterday it was 8O degrees! The evenings are dropping to the 70's, sometimes 60's. I am really enjoying fall here. Nice and warm!!

Will is lucky enough to get student priced tickets to the Baltimore Orioles games. They played the Red Sox recently so Will and I headed to the stadium with our $6 tickets :). Nothing like a ball game and some beer!

Finally, Will and I are house hunting. It is a daunting process, but we are really enjoying scouring Baltimore's cute rowhomes. We love the exposed brick in many of them! Our most recent intrigue is a foreclosure two blocks from the water. It needs cosmetic updates, but boasts a fantastic layout of two master bed/bath combos, each with their own fireplaces. The top floor has a balcony with a sitting room. We will keep you posted on that endeavor!

Happy Fall everyone!

Friends!

This past weekend I was lucky enough to have a little reunion with four off my sorority sisters! Caitlin Griffith, Laura Powell, Laura Shipley and Andie Corso came to visit! They stayed with Will and me for two nights. We had lots of fun around Baltimore; shopping, eating ice-cream, going out to eat and out dancing! I never cease to have a blast with these girls. We decided that we are going to make this a trend. Thanks for coming guys!!!

Dental School

Will Starts Dental School!

Will started his first year of dental school at the University of Maryland Baltimore a few weeks ago. So far he has met some great friends (several of which are Christians), and has immediately started a great deal of studying and work. This is going to be a long four years for the both of us!
Will also had his first quiz (and received a 100%...shocking :). I am very proud of my genius hubby :).

Revilla Family Visit

The weekend of August 22, Will and I were lucky enough to have my mom, dad and Michelle visit from Vermont. They made the 8 hour drive to come see us from Thursday-Tuesday. We had so much fun showing them around Baltimore, and introducing them to our little Diggy (who loved the attention). We spent Friday at the salon where my mom, Michelle, and even my dad were pampered:). We were also treated to many meals out, as well as A LOT of ice cream :) (Thanks mom and dad!) We already miss them and can't wait for the next visit!

One Year Anniversary! This past Saturday was mine and Will's one year anniversary. To celebrate we headed off to Assateague Island. It is technically in Maryland, but it feels like a world of its own! No homes are allowed on this island that juts out into the water. This is meant to preserve its natural state. We camped, went to the STUNNING beach, and on our last day, visited the Ocean City boardwalk, a very touristy fun area. The Island of Assateague is known for its wild horses. The horses roam all over the campsites, beaches, etc. It is pretty cool. We brought Diggy with us, and he absolutely loved the camping experience. We let him off the leash all weekend for him to explore. We were pleasantly surprised at how good he is off leash, never leaving us! He also LOVES the ocean; jumping in the water and playing in the sand. He developed a funny habit of digging himself a hole to lay in haha. All in all we had a FANTASTIC anniversary. We remembered our top tier cake and some champagne from our honeymoon that we saved for morning mimosas! Marriage is great :).

Employed!!!!!

I thought I should announce to the world that I have a job!!!
I will be working full time as a stylist at All About Me salon and dayspa. From the moment I walked in, I knew I wanted to be there. It is adorable inside, both upbeat and low key, as well as classy and fun.

I had an interview on Tuesday where I preformed a demonstration highlight and cut on a model they brought in. To my surprise I found that the model is a christian. I ended up with a church recommendation (Will and I are in search of a church) that I am so excited to try out, and a job! I can't wait to make women all over Baltimore feel beautiful :).

Congratulations Jason and Cynthia!!!!!!

Will and I are so excited to welcome Cynthia into our family. She is super sweet and crazy about Jason. What more do you need to know?

Jason proposed to Cynthia on Singing Beach with a picnic and champagne (how romantical). Her ring is stunning, and so will Cynthia be as a bride!

We can't wait for June 11th, 2010 :)

Everything has finally been coming together! Here is our $20 Big Lots find, the zebra rug. Being very trendy, we were hoping to find a cheap one so that we didn't feel guilty when we didn't want to use it down the road....boy did we find the right price!!! The brown chair was also found in a free pile outside of our apartment-we simply recovered with fabric from wal-mart. Decorating with little money is actually fun for us-it's like a mission!!



Here is our $25 dollar Craig's List dining table (that Zipper is illegally laying on). Only thing missing? Chairs! That's next on our list.

Meanwhile, Diggy will chew on anything he can get his little jaw around.

Considering our apartment is still out of sorts, you will have to wait for pics of that (stay tuned!). You may, however, see pictures of Diggy. Diggy is our baby Norwich Terrier and Yorkie mix. We just picked him up from the breeder yesterday! He is the sweetest little guy! Will and I are having so much fun training and playing with him. He is about 13 weeks old and is as cute as the dickens. So far, his favorite thing to do is be with Will and me. Man do we love him!
