For Emily

As you requested, a blog about things I like at Anthropologie right now. And since you have a gift card, I picked all these things for you.

I already told you this, but every time I pass this shirt it reminds me of you. Remember? We were in Parisian one day and you tried on a similar outfit by Nanette Lepore. Very cute.

This top is so cute...it would be great with shorts. or jeans.

I absolutely LOVE this dress. It is super cute and not very expensive...$98 i think?? I would add a big brown belt and a necklace (if i was into jewelry). I'm thinking about getting it...maybe in red.

And lastly, this denim mini skirt. I only added it to this post because you are/were at one time obsessed with mini skirts. And I actually like this one, and you know how I feel about mini skirts. So, these are my suggestions. For now. You can always come visit me, and I'll take you in our store. And any other store you want to go in. Miss you, Em!

Number 2 Value Sized

Tonight was glorious and I'll tell you why...Mitch and I got to eat Chick-fil-A for dinner. I love Chick-fil-A. I miss Chick-fil-A. We have a couple here, but they are both pretty far away from where we live. I have been needing to go out to Chesterfield so I could go to Fleet's Feet and that happens to be where one of them is. So I went today after work. It was all I could think about all day. I met Mitch at the seminary and we went out to Chesterfield. It was better than I remembered!! Mitch and I always get a number 2 value sized so we can share the drink and fries and then we get an additional Chargrilled sandwich. Tonight was no exception. We evenly split the fries and ate those first. It didn't take long to realize that half wasn't going to be enough, so we went back for another order! Sandwich and Diet Lemonade were equally as amazing. I can't wait to plan my next trip!!

She Rox

Did I mention that I am training for a triathlon? My first race is going to be a sprint distance...0.5 mile swim, 14 mile bike, and 3.1 mile run.
And I really want to do this one in Philadelphia! It's in August...Maybe if our condo sells. There's also one close to here in May. The swim is in a pool so that would be nice. I have to admit that I'm pretty nervous about the start, especially in open water.

The training has been great so far. Mitch was training with me for the first 2 weeks, but now that school has started back, he really doesn't have the time. So, I need a new partner...any takers??

Semester in review

So, we started this blog when we moved to St. Louis to keep everyone updated on what's going on in our lives. We have obviously done a TERRIBLE job, seeing as how our only other post is from August when we moved here. So here are a few highlights of the semester...

Our first visitors were Kelly and Matt. We had a great time visiting with them...I can't even remember where all we took them, but here are a couple of pictures from the Arch and the Anheuser Busch Tour.

Here is a picture of our U after the first snow.

We have really enjoyed making new friends here at seminary. These are the girls in my Bible study. We had game night at our house and the girls dominated at Cranium, of course.

We loved getting to go home for Christmas. We went to Nashville to see Mitch's family, then to Birmingham for a few days and then down to Dothan to see my family. We got to see lots of friends on the way too! We spent New Years in Nashville at the CO conference with Chad, Emily and Keller Walker and Matt and Kelly.

That's all for now, and I promise to do a better job of blogging this semester. --Kristen
