7 therapists, brunch, and a baby

My grad school cohort and I met up at Bravo's for brunch on Sunday.  It had been a long time since we had all gotten together.  Rewind three and a half years ago and we were together everyday; whether in class, watching each other conduct therapy behind a one-way mirror, in group supervision, or eating together.  We saw each other everyday for more than two years.  It was a great time in my life, and it is always good to catch up on where everybody is in their lives both personally and professionally.  It was a group of 12 of us in graduate school,  three members of the group have moved out of state, one about to move out of the country, and another one was absent today, leaving seven of us doing what we do best: Eating!

                                           Andrea's Precious Baby, Sadie.  She did not join us for the brunch, however Andrea's husband was nice enough to bring her up so that we could meet her.  She is just a few days shy of 8 months old, and was such a happy and sweet baby!

Thanks to all of  you for a fun time together on Sunday!! Until next time....

New Year's Eve

Kevin and I celebrated 2010 this year by going to dinner with friends to Sapporo Restaurant.  It was a great time with lots to celebrate and looking forward to 2011.  Abby and Chris are expecting their first child in July, and Ashley and Chris are getting married in September.  Abby's cousin, Grace and her boyfriend John also joined us to celebrate. 

I ordered this martini.  It was so pretty but not that great tasting.  I ended up ordering a Pomegranate Martini that was wonderful, but did not get a picture.
