Major Moment


We celebrated a 'major moment' this weekend: my guy's business school graduation! I'm so incredibly proud of him and glad that we were able to spend this final weekend in Ithaca with our parents. A few highlights include: dinner at Mercato and The Heights, a tour of the Cornell University campus, wine tasting along Seneca Lake and a delicious lunch at Stonecat. After dropping our parents off at the airport we made a mini detour for pulled pork sandwiches and macaroni and cheese at Dinosaur BBQ in Syracuse which definitely lived up to the hype. 



Wine tasting at Hermann J. Wiener Vineyard (the favorite of the day).


I love the Ivy League feel of the law library (part of the extensive campus tour we gave our parents).


Gorgeous white peonies growing at one of the wineries (I've never seen them on the bush before).


I wore this Alice + Olivia dress to our rehearsal dinner party around this time last year and now we're looking forward to celebrating our one year wedding anniversary in our new (NYC) apartment this next week!
