Throwback Thursday- 5 Years Back

I can't believe just 5 short years ago I was getting myself prepared for a date with my now husband. I can't believe how fast time flies. So many wonderful moment have been shared and I can't wait for all the new adventures we will share. This Saturday will be the anniversary of our first date. I can't think of a better way for us to celebrate than with our baby shower. Watching my husband develop from a great boyfriend to husband and now into a father to be has been such a wonderful experience. Our love story is one I cherish.

5 Years Back.....

Our second date

There now, steady, love, so few come and don't go

Will you, won't you be the one I'll always know?

When I'm losing my control the city spins around

You're the only one who knows you slow it down

TBT- Apple Orchard

Next weekend will be the anniversary of my husband and my first date. I can't believe 5 years have come and gone so quickly. Each year we take an annual picture in the same orchard where it all started. I love looking back each year around this time. So much has changed; from dating, to engagement, married and now a baby. I only wish we took a picture of our very first date.

Throwback Thursday.

I love this picture. It reminds me of how wonderful my Aunt Susan was to us growing up. When she passed away in 2012 after a very long and painful illness we were all heartbroken. It's so nice to look back on pictures and memories we have of her.

I don't have any idea why I'm eating my witches broom and not the jack-o-lantern sugar cookie. 

I love my aunt's bright orange Chuck Taylors peeking through. She was so festive for Halloween. 

I know there are so many hurting in this world for the last several days. My heart aches for Boston and Texas as well.

Throwback Thursday....

I was recently cleaning up my Mac last week when I found this gem.

Apparently my best friend and I were out one night and thought it would be fun to take pictures with some one's old Volkswagen. That seems innocent enough, right?!?! I don't know if I'll share with you what Jac did after she realized the doors were open. Turns out the VW belonged to a friend of ours from high school who was in town visiting.

I believe this is going back about 10 years ago. We used to have such a blast. Our friend used to bartend in the town where we grew up. It was pretty much our very our "Cheers". It's crazy that Jaclyn is now very pregnant and our big adventures on the weekend usually include a trip to Trader Joes and Home Goods at the dismay of our budget loving husbands. It's time for us to embark on new adventures but we used to be a blast!


Linking up with Ady...

Throwback Thursday-Opening Day

So spring is officially underway and I'm ready for all the great things that come with it. Especially baseball. As a girl who grew up in the Bronx I'm a Yankee pinstripe kinda gal! As a kid we went to tons of games. My husband and I love to go to games. We celebrate his birthday with a Yankee game every year. 

One of my most favorite days, EVER, was attending the Yankee ticker tape parade back in 2009. We woke up at 4am and drove to Hoboken NJ and took the ferry down to NYC. We froze! It was so cold and I remember being so hungry. 

The day was going great until we got back to our cars. We took 2 cars and parked next to one another on the streets of Hoboken. Problem was it was permit only. OOPS! We got ticketed AND booted! Yep, $800 and removing the boot, later we were finally able leave! 

What a mess! Still it was one of the best days! 

PLAY BALL! 

Throwback Thursday- St. Patrick's Day

I've been off for the past few days. Yesterday we cancelled our plans due to the snow that never actually came. I was stuck in the house with no plans so I skimmed through some old pictures. These bright and out of control behavior of years gone by reminded me that I once was fun.

 How cute is this little face?

 Couldn't believe that some of these had gone back almost 8 years. I have to share them with my very pregnant best friend who appears in almost all of these. She has been my partner in crime for many years. I'm sure 

 I also like looking at them because they remind me of home much weight I've lost since these were taken.  

Happy Thursday!
