Turkish Breakfast

So good to be re-united with E. We met in Istanbul back in 2005 and last week she moved to DC. This morning I met her and her friend at Eastern Market to purchase food for Turkish breakfast. It was delicious!

So thankful for our new home!

A Wedding

So, Tyler and I went to a wedding in Raleigh back in August. It was a lot of fun and a great visit with the fam and sweet friends there. Baby Tay in the top picture, followed by myself and the beautiful Bride, and finally, some pics with the bro (in one of his "27 dresses"). The boy has been a groomsman in quite a few weddings.

California Highlights

A few posts below of my time in California. Seeing Anna was wonderful. Getting a glimpse into her every day was so sweet-loved visiting her church and community group, going to the dog park with she and Dexter, and driving around her new city. I'm so thankful for the time.

Seeing Ally was an unexpected blessing. We were roommates in Turkey back in 2006 and have seen each other twice since then. It was so sweet to see her and connect after so many years.

Many attempts at the perfect picture.
Chick-fil-a for lunch.

Malibu

Venice Beach.

Well, it's been about a month since my trip to LA, but I figured I was due for a post. Enjoy!

Venice Beach: Quite the freak show.

Me and the Bestie

I had just pulled a nail out of this guy's nostril. So weird.
