A Lovely Weekend

This weekend has been a good and lazy one. Derrick and I have been extremely busy these past couple of weeks so it was nice to finally have a weekend without an agenda. Derrick was with his best friends all weekend having a bachelor weekend for Michael. Michael and Rebecca get married in just three weeks! While our guys were hanging out Holly, Rebecca, and I used the opportunity to have a girls weekend.

On Friday night we headed to Hillsborough Street and had dinner and drinks at David's Dumpling and Noodle Bar. You can always count on Rebecca to know the good restaurants and find new ones to try. It was delicious! After dinner we got cookout milkshakes and decided to walk around campus and check out all the new buildings our student fees had paid for. We felt extremely old walking around and seeing all the students who were 5-10 years younger then us. The new student center is extremely nice and we spent most of the time admiring the new furniture and getting directions from students who said we looked lost.

 

Yesterday we met at the Farmer's Market in Morrisville to check it out. I had Crosby with me and was sad to find out that she wasn't allowed, however, there is a stand at the very front that will hold your dog for you while you shop. It's  charity that purchases local food to feed children in need so in exchange for holding Crosby I was sure to donate. They said they were always happy to hold her so I think we'll still bring her in the future and drop a donation in each time.

The farmer's market is great! They have tons of vegetables and they also have bread, cheese, and meat stands. I stocked up on salad stuff for the week as well as bread and corn on the cob. Our apartment is not in any state right now to display flowers but I'll definitely be getting some next time I go because they were gorgeous!!

After the farmer's market I headed off to NC State again for Raleighwood practice where we had the best turn out of the year. Practice was great and ended in plenty of time to get back home, take a nap, and be up for the State game at 6:00. Holly came over for the State game and we even went out at half time to pick up dinner and a new NCSU jersey for me!

Crosby is obsessed with Holly. Crosby can take a while to warm up to people, which was the case with Holly at first, but now she has decided Holly is one of her favorites. She was whining and jumping up on her all night just wanting to be close to her. Hopefully Holly doesn't mind :) Oh, and State came out with the win! It's going to be another heart attack season if they keep up this trend of being down in the first half and winning in the 4th quarter.
