sweetly singing

i'm late to bed so i'm just going to post pictures from this weekend from other people's cameras

this one isn't this weekend.. it was from the wine bar last weekend or a couple weekends ago with john and abha. and me and my "long" hair.

friday we had mojitos at abha's before going to dinner. this is me, john and marc. and the new hair.

saturday night we wall watched the UT game. becca, andy and i are on the couch. abha, john and marc's friend ryan are in the next row. then marc and this guy chuck/charles who's in law school. he took chinese in high school but i don't really understand anything he says.

today was a lot of fun. miriam and i went to the neighbors for brunch. we made a dutch baby. it looks fancy but it's one of the easiest things you can possibly make.

then this evening a whole bunch of us went to marvin, my fav restaurant, ate delicious mussels and chatted in the candlelit ambiance. it is so nice in there and the food is always good.

after dinner, we gave up our secret hangout and showed everyone where the speakeasy is. nine of us smushed into a 6 person area, but it was cozy. if they don't have a drink you want, you can tell the server what you like and he'll suggest something to suit your tastes. the guys were having fun with that.

i invited one of our newest friends, brian, to dinner and drinks and he was delightful. we met him a month or so ago at the beer pong tournament but i didn't even say hi to him then. he's outgoing, super nice, really intelligent. he's going to be a fantastic addition to our group.

sad that andy's going home, but it was nice to get everyone together for so many things while he was here.
