Chas and I hosted our very first dinner party at our place last week: Friendsgiving! It was the most fun. We asked each couple to bring their favorite Thanksgiving dish and we had all the goods from stuffing to green bean casserole to apple pie! Charles in charge did a fabulous job with the turkey (his first one ever, I was so proud) and we were all lying on the floor with food comas by the end of the night.

Friendsgiving was a success! We invited our "Newlywed Squad" over for a Friendsgiving dinner Monday night and it was the most fun!! It was our first time hosting in our apartment and Chas + I agreed we make a pretty good...

Hello, friends! I hope you all had a lovely weekend. Chas and I stayed home most of the weekend. I relaxed and he read. Law school is starting to get a little more intense for Chas (8 hours of reading and writing on Saturday, bless him)...

So thankful for a weekend with some of my favorite people! My mom and sister came in town early Thursday morning and we had the most lovely brunch. My dad flew in Friday morning and we did more exploring of the Windy City! I'm going into this week with a bucket full of blooms...
