Oh hey Monday, we meet again! I hope everyone had a lovely start to their February. I had a pretty relaxing weekend, nothing too crazy. I’m linking with Biana & Meghan as usual so let’s jump right into my short but sweet recap!
Friday was a happy day. I studied most of the day at work, assisted with a c-section, then picked up some food and made dinner with Ryan. Yay for the fiancé coming to town!! He hasn’t visited since October because I had a rotation/winter break in Charlotte and have been going there so much on the weekends. We were in full-out lazy mode that night but did manage to do some research for our upcoming vacation! I am sooooo excited to be somewhere tropical some front runners are the British Virgin Islands, Puerto Rico, and St. Thomas. More updates to come!
On Saturday, we had a big breakfast, lounged around some more (exciting weekend, huh?) and I squeezed in some studying. I’m so ready to get this OB test over with… only 4 more days of work! That night Ryan & I popped over to the mall and then headed downtown for a little date night. It was Triangle Restaurant Week so we took full advantage with some yummy Italian food and a big bottle of red at Caffe Luna. My classmate Anna was our server there so that was an added plus! After dinner, the boy & I headed to Raleigh Times to meet up with my roommate Sarah and our friends Freddy & Rachael.
Love these Loren Hope earrings that came in my Rocks Box! And Sarah let me rock her Ray-Bans for the day. I didn’t think I would like this style on me, but I actually love the retro feel of them!
How cute is Caffe Luna? (Ps. you can see the guy on the left waving at me as I was taking the picture, he probably thought I was a total creeper!)

Sunday wasn’t too exciting. Ryan headed back to Charlotte and the next time I see him will be Valentine’s Day (tear!). I did a bit of studying and even got my butt to the gym. Thank goodness my roomie is such a good motivator. After that I made dinner, binge-watched some Grey’s Anatomy, and helped Sarah decorate her ortho cookies that she’s bringing to her clinic this week. Aren’t they just adorable?!?
I hope y’all had a great weekend as well! Unfortunately since we don’t have cable, I didn’t get to watch the Superbowl. How lame is that?!? So please feel free to tell me which commercials I missed out on (because isn’t that the best part?). Thanks for reading!
Sounds like a seriously great weekend!!! I vote for Puerto Rico, mostly because we're going there in April and I can't wait to escape this brutal weather we're having!!! Love those little cookies and all the commercials you can catch on Youtube so no need for cable!! xo, Biana – BlovedBoston
Nothing beats a relaxing weekend! I did long distance with my fiancé for a while too.. it’s the WORST but will be so worth it in the end 🙂 those cookies are adorable!
LOVE those earrings and Ray-Bans on you! Gorgeous girl! And that pork tenderloin… omg! YUM! Those cookies are so cute! Happy Monday girl!
Don't feel too bad about missing the superbowl…we HAVE cable and didn't watch a second of it. Your weekend sounds positively LOVELY and I'm sure was a much needed break. I absolutely love Caffe Luna and Raleigh Times! I noticed your sunglasses in one of the pictures from this weekend (can't remember if it was snapchat or instagram) but they look freaking fab on you!
Sounds like a great weekend! Haha the waving man!! I'm dying over those earrings!! So pretty!!

Lazy weekends in the winter are the best! LOVE those earrings, Loren Hope makes the best jewelry. And I totally laughed out loud at that guy waving at you taking the picture! Glad that you and Ryan had a fun weekend together- hopefully the next couple of weeks will fly by until you see each other again!
I havent been to the other places but I will say that I love Puerto Rico. There's tons of things to do there. Also those ray bans look fabulous on you.
There's nothing better than a lazy weekend and it sounds like yours was great. I absolutely LOVE those earrings! I just got done taking this round of exams and am so ready to relax. Good luck with the OB exam!!
I always feel like a total creeper too when I'm trying to take a pic of a place for the blog. At least you got a wave and not a weird look 😉
Your Rocksbox earrings are gorgeous! Glad you got to spend a relaxing weekend with Ryan, and can't wait to hear where you guys decide to go for your trip!

You actually missed a really good game. I don't like football that much but since The Pats were in it I watched and it was so tense! So many crazy plays!!!! But looks like you had a fun and relaxing weekend.
Sounds like a great weekend and LOVE those earrings:)
Sounds like a great weekend! Good luck on your test! Vacation planning is so much fun- I have some great recommendations if you decide on Puerto Rico!
