The start of School

Matt has officially started his last year of law school which means this is his last year of school ever. We have been married for over 4 years and Matt has been in school the entire time. It has been a very fun time of life but it is nice to know that there is an end. The weekend before school started we wanted to celebrate and make sure we are enjoying some of our favorite things about Pittsburgh. 


On Friday after work we went to the Little Italy Days in the Bloomfield neighborhood. They had lots of booths and tents set up and it is fun to walk around. My favorite part of the festival is ALWAYS the canolis. They are fresh and our the closest thing to authentic Italian. 




On Saturday morning we woke up and did a long bike ride. We are training for a sprint triathalon in October and have been training from opposite sides of the country this summer.We loved training together again. It was a beautiful day and good ride. 

Side note Matt has the best selfie arm. (Thank you 6'6'' frame!)





On Monday Matt started his first last day of school EVER! We were both very excited for this. It was a beautiful day and I made him take a picture with a sign similar to an elementary school child. 





Upstate New York

After being apart all summer Matt and I planned a trip to New York before the start of school. We stayed in Palmyra and did some of the church history sites as well as some of the other fun tourist attractions.

Every morning we were there we walked around the Sacred Grove. It was the best start to the day.





On Saturday Morning we went to the Palmyra temple. 




I ate way too much Chill and Grill. 





We went out on Sodus bay 



It started to rain so we were not able to go to the beach near the light house but it was still beautiful. 












We went on a tour of some of the Church history sites. 


Breakfast for Dinner is always the best. 







Chill and Grill again




We also went on a hike in Watkins Glen. It was beautiful. There were 19 waterfalls in total.
