Ah, how good it feels! The hand of an old friend.

While Wes and I work on making new friends, we were lucky enough to have some of the best "old" ones come to visit a couple of weekends ago!  Check out some shots from a "weekend dedicated to our good friend Joanne," to celebrate her upcoming nuptials!

After a few bottles of wine, we decided that it would be a good idea to pose with household items.  I'm not sure what I'm holding in this shot, but I know that in the next one I thought it would be more powerful if I picked up the giant framed poster behind me.  Meg and Joanne, what did you guys hold in the next one?  Eachother? 

 

Chef Meg made these deeeeeeeeelicious spinach linguine frittatas the following morning!  Soooooo good!

Next stop:  the nail salon, of course! So, I asked the sweet nail technician if she would mind taking a picture of the 4 of us.  She didn't...but right before she pushed the button to take the picture she instructed us to "hold hands girls!"  And we did...without any hesitation or discussion.  It wasn't until a few hours later that one of us brought up how odd/awkward of a moment it really was.  Four smiling adults, calmly holding hands, while their feet soak in bath water.  Totally normal.

Priorities totally straight.  

Our fearless chauffeur, David (pronounced Daveed).

Check out these awesome chairs we discovered at our first stop, The Donovan House!

Another stop on the Joanne train:  Lincoln. Obsessed with the light fixtures...and their Mac & Cheese.

Gimlet = Dunzo.

Best bread EVER.

This is where you can find the Best Bread EVER!  Birch & Barley....they also have fantastic Mac & Cheese.

Believe it or not, this isn't the end of the night.  Can you say, ROCKSTAR?  Or would it be waiter pressure, Joanne?  What a creeper he was.

The next day, Wes came to join the fun!  Look, there he is!! :)

Off to watch the Bills game at a Bills Backer Bar in Baltimore.  Whoa, alliteration.  For those of you who know her well, you can probably guess that this is where the "weekend dedicated to our good friend Joanne" ends. 

...but not before we could capture proof that she sat and watched the game!  This is Joanne "cheering" for a touchdown! 

There's nothing like good friends, good times, and some innocent hand holding.  *sigh*
