Kevin's 29th Birthday 2009

We had a fun weekend celebrating Kevin's birthday. Brady was visiting for the weekend from Philly so Saturday we showed him around our part of Brooklyn and had a delicious lunch at F. Martinella Deli.

Saturday evening, James W met up with us, and the four of us had dinner at a Peruvian restaurant in our Cobble Hill neighborhood and then had drinks at Kevin's favorite Brooklyn bar, the Brooklyn Inn.

Sunday was Kevin's real birthday, so we went for a walk around Park Slope and Prospect Park. I also made him Cuban ropa vieja for dinner. A favorite!

Valentine's Day 2009

Kevin's birthday is the day after Valentine's Day so this year we combined it more aggressively and celebrated his birthday on the day of Valentine's with his friends Brady and James. The four of us had dinner at a Peruvian restaurant in our Cobble Hill neighborhood and then had drinks at Kevin's favorite Brooklyn bar. The four of us kept it sexy.

Honeymoon Booked! 2009

Originally Kevin and I found a great deal to Ireland, but it dawned on me that trudging around in the cold in early June wouldn't be the most romantic honeymoon ever.Luckily we were able to get a full refund and book a new trip to Greece instead!

Kevin arranged the whole trip (best fiance ever!). We'll be flying into Athens, spending a few days there, then taking a boat to a small fishing village called Folegandros, and then relaxing in beautiful Santorini before flying out of Athens again. Very excited!
