Sister Sister

The sister came to visit last week and it was so.much.fun to have our first house guest! She got a candid glimpse into my life here, which includes lots of driving Thomas to and from practice and figuring out what to do with my day.

And enjoying the small town our apartment looks down upon

And of course we ate lots of yummy food from two new Italian discoveries, Venda Ravioli in Providence, RI {an amazing Italian grocery store/to-go lunch items} and a nearby pizza placed called Scorpio's.  Thomas and I are probably most excited about Scorpio's because it is really close and everything is FRESH. Fresh pasta, fresh pizza, and fresh garlic knots that will make you fall to your knees and thank the Lord for taste buds.

We also went into Boston twice this past weekend as Clemson was playing Boston College. On Friday we went to have lunch with my uncle and aunt who were in town for the game, and it was hilarious to see so much orange on the streets of Boston. We did a little sightseeing afterwards and Jeannie and Thomas had a little TOO much fun with the history.

It was sad to see Clemson lose to Boston College on Saturday, but we had a good time catching up with football friends and lost only a few years off of our life looking for parking in the city. Never again will we drive into Boston twice in one weekend! Our marriage would surely crumble.

Jeannie paved the way for visitors, and says that the pull out couch is pretty comfortable but you will have to sleep through Thomas snoring. So head on up for some garlic knots, history, and snoring through the walls!
