valentine's 2016

-
The Sparks' girls left the day before Valentine's day, on Saturday morning. We got to see them for a bit of the morning before they were off and Z + I celebrated our V-Day. We decided within minutes to go to brunch at a local hot spot, made reservations about an hour before and were off shortly after we got ready.

Brunch. At. Communal. Is. Amazing. Period. Holy moly, we couldn't have been happier with our decision to go for brunch. We got these amazing ricotta donuts with lemon curd to share as an appetizer and they were light, fluffy and not too sweet. Zach got eggs benedict and I ordered the pine state (because calories don't count of holidays/when you celebrate holidays and I was feeling adventurous ok don't judge) which is a biscuit with fried chicken, bacon, cheese, an egg and gravy on it. UHMAZING. Amazing. I loved being adventurous and trying new places with my love.


This is the only picture we really got on Valentine's day right before church. It's silly and I love it. After church, we went and had an amazing homemade meal with Zach's parents and sister. It was an awesome day, plus no school the next day felt even better! Hope you had a happy love day, lovers!

I like using Instagram to keep in touch with and keep our loved ones updated on our life happenings. Since my last post, LOTS has happened. Zach decided to stop the PhD at Duke, graduated with a Master's instead, got a job at Capital One as a Software Engineer and since has changed positions/teams to be a Data Scientist, we moved to the beautiful suburbs of Richmond Virginia, and then shortly after moving to Richmond found out I was expecting a baby!! We had been trying to get pregnant for about a year when one morning I decided to take a test. Zach was down at our apartment's

Following the c-section, we had a 3 day long hospital stay... kinda more like 4 since Em was born early early Thursday morning. So... Wednesday morning to Sunday afternoon. It was so wonderful to be in that little hospital bubble of ours. Here is just a quick photo dump of our hospital stay!
