I have approximately thirty minutes for lunch, and so I've decided to treat you all to an update - mostly because I'm tired of being harrassed. This should keep you all quiet for at least a week or so.
Not much has happened since I've been home - mostly work, but lots of hanging out when everyone's schedules permit. On a few of these occasions, plenty of pictures have been taken, and so that's pretty much what this entry will consist of. But you know looking at pictures is far more interesting than reading.
March 13th, Billy graduated from college. Two days prior to that, Andy had his Confirmation. So the night of the 13th, we had the family over for a Graduation/Confirmation/Mother's Day party. All of my dad's side came over, and my Grandma from New York (mom's mom) was in town to help with the store while everyone else went to the Graduation. Anyways, not the point. Grace, my cousin, is getting so big and so ridiculously cute I can barely stand it. By the end of the evening, she found herself drawn to the piano... but once my dad started playing the Blues, she started crying.
Learning from Billy.
Watching as my dad played - this was right before he busted out the Blues.
Asking for requests.
Reading music.
March 21st, Matt, Sarah, and I met up to see The DaVinci Code. There was, of course, a Jesus freak on the side of the road proclaiming "I LOVE JESUS! I REJECT THE DAVINCI CODE!" I'm sure Dan Brown, Ron Howard, and Akiva Goldsman are just beside themselves with depression because of the lack of support from these people. Anyways, I don't understand all of the poor reviews it's getting because I loved it. And as you know, I am the end-all when it comes to movie reviews. I was riveted the entire time - moreso than I have ever been watching any movie before. I recommend it to anyone who has a brain.
Sarah & I before the movie.

After Eat 'N Park.
Our team mascot - not really, I just decided to call her that right now. She dances when the car moves. It's fantastic.
This past Sunday night, Matt and I decided that it was due time for a trip to the Point. We called Sarah about 400 times and left 6 amazing voicemails, but didn't get a hold of her until about 9:00 that night when she called us back. But we did end up together by the end of the night. Let me just say, Matt and I are the best photographers you will ever meet and have decided to say "screw it" to all of our original future plans and become art majors. Even though neither of us can draw... at all. It's not important though. If there was such a thing as Sunset Magazine, we'd be the Senior Editors.
The Point of course!
Us being cute.
As much of the skyline as you can see from the park.
A goose.
The Gateway Clipper - in case you can't read.
TIIIME FOR A PHOTOSHOOT!
End photoshoot.
How the sunset looks against the buildings.
Matt and I being amazing.
When Miss Murtha finally met up with us!
ANNND the sunset pictures.
Let's just say Matt and I are the most creative people. We took Sarah's sunglasses and used them as a filter, and this is the result:
And one without the "filter".
That's pretty much all I've got for you.
The Grand Opening of the store is Sunday - exciting. Plus, to avoid overtime hours, I get Saturday off which is doubly exciting.
So.
This update should hold you over for quite awhile, and if it doesn't, just look at
