Baby Shower Recap and Potential Birthday Gifts…

Baby shower cake

Two weekends ago, Eric and I flew to Chicago for our very first baby shower! My mom, sister, and cousin hosted it, and it was SO much fun. A quick recap–we played the “guess how big I am” game, and Alisha came up with a great trivia game (did you know a woman in the [...]

Boston Trip: Day 6

Again, belated–very sorry!  This post is about our last day in Boston last month. Somehow, mom and I packed more into our last day in town than we had done on any other day of the trip, despite only having a half day left in Boston before our flights home. We started with a quick [...]

Boston Trip: Days 4 and 5

This is really belated, apologies! Remember when I went to Boston last month?  Well this narrative continues my trip report–for the Friday and Saturday I was there. Friday was a busy, busy day. The bulk of my day was taken up with pro bono committee items—the Pro Bono Breakfast kicked the day off, where we [...]

Blowing Rock: Chetola Resort

CR1

One of the great perks of my job is that I get to travel fairly often.  Many times, I am lucky enough to stay in gorgeous places around North Carolina.  Last weekend was one of those weekends.  We stayed at Chetola Resort in Blowing Rock, NC.  While I was working on Sunday morning, Eric had [...]

Blowing Rock: Black Cat Burrito

Black Cat 2

Last Saturday, Eric and I decided to have a low-key evening instead of dining in elegant style at the hotel with my coworkers and colleagues.  We really needed a chance to get away by ourselves, and this was the perfect opportunity.  Since we share a mutual love of all local burrito and/or pizza places (especially [...]

Last Saturday, Eric and I (along with my friend Tom) spent the afternoon hiking at Linville Falls.  We had a great time seeing the falls and each of the overlooks.  We even ran into Ray and Kathy, some other friends from work.  (That’s what I get for hiking on a work trip!) The foliage was [...]

Last weekend, Eric and I traveled to Blowing Rock, NC.  It was primarily a work trip (me), but we were able to enjoy fall in the mountains while we were there. We had a great time at the weekend kickoff on Friday night that included a trip to Grandfather Mountain.  We were able to stay [...]

Wilmington Trip, part 1

Cape fear 3

Last month I was able to attend the 2010 N.C. Entrepreneurship Summit in Wilmington.  It was a great two days.  I met lots of new people, heard about some great programs being built and growing in North Carolina, and learned much.  But the best part for me was actually being in Wilmington.  It’s such a [...]

Wilmington Trip

Meric @ Wrightsville

The week before we went to Myrtle Beach, Eric and I headed to Wilmington for four days.  I had to be there for work, and he was able to tag along and have a great time meeting new friends and spending time with me.  This was the view from our room at the Coastline Inn. [...]
