How to Exercise...Rebecca and Bethany Style

Rebecca and I run sometimes
But sometimes we need a change
Yesterday after our run we decided to try some "yoga"

Rebecca enjoys doing the bridge

 I enjoy doing wall sits
with a little "resistance"
Notice how we are looking lovingly into each others eyes
 We also tried a traditional lunge
I know you are all jealous of our extreme athleticism 

Xavier!

I got to see many friends at Xavier last weekend
 We had a spectacular lunch date
 This girl came all the way out of the country just to see me
(Okay she came for a wedding but I can claim it was for me)
I also had a lovely caf date with Kathleen and Jordan in attendance but unfortunately I do not have those pictures.

Wow...it's been a long time

I have not blogged in a long time
I would apologize
 but than I may be just flattering myself assuming that others care if I do or do not blog
Who am I kidding?
I am obsessed with the fact that people read my blog
I am sorry I am sure you all have been very upset with my lack of posting
I have a few updates to post
So expect a few blogs to come out in the next few days

I went to Cincinnati last weekend 
Ken and I had a good time hiking and playing on all the random exercise equipment


 We also had a good time playing with the timer on the camera 
 Monday night upon leaving I found that my connecting flight in Cleveland was cancelled
 This is Ken finding out that I would be staying another day
 Don't worry I saw other people in Cincinnati as well
I also have pictures of them too
They were all extremely excited to make the blog
So I suppose I will make them wait a day longer...

Oh how classy we are.....actually we really are now


Now why are we so dressed up?

A few months ago at a conference I won a gift certificate for dinner for two at the center club. Its a really classy place at the inner harbor. And I mean very very classy. Gentleman were required to wear jackets. 


Anyway everything was included in our dinner. Thankfully, because if we would have paid for it it would have cost over $200. As the piano player serenaded us we enjoyed delicious food.

We got a pre appetizer (a salmon dip)

appetizers (maryland crab soup for me, a beef thing for ken)

amazing wine (not sure what our waiter brought us but nothing on the menu was under $10 a glass and he said he would bring us something good)

dinner (crab cakes that melted in my mouth and what Ken said was the best steak he ever had)

An after dinner cognac (made of pears)

And dessert (Ice cream with fresh berries or chocolate for ken)


We ended up tipping more than it would have costs us to go out to dinner somewhere else but it was great and worth it.
