Love Bean, etc.

I was just doing my daily check-in-with-other-people's-blogs routine when I realized that we haven't fed and watered our own blog in a while. I guess that's mostly because we don't have much of an update. We had a wonderful Saturday evening seeing Sharyn and her friends Leslie and Jason (who might even be our friends now, too, if we didn't scare them away, which frankly we may have) in Old Town Alexandria. We even did the S'mores at Cosi...it was THAT fabulous an evening. In addition, we celebrated Navy's win over Notre Dame. All in all, the perfect day.
Here's a picture of Sharyn from years ago when we tried to capture a shot of a loud and not-so-great singer on the streets of Squirrel Hill. I'm posting this picture because I know Sharyn never checks in with the blog and now maybe it'll keep her on her toes!
I want to thank Kevin's sister, Sharon, for sending this picture of a "love bean" that her family grew. We gave these little beans to our nieces and nephews at our wedding and I was really excited to see what they would look like when they sprouted. Order your own beans by clicking here - they have them in lots of different messages. They make great stocking stuffers or an extra little something for your Thanksgiving Host(ess)! Thank you, Sharon!

Also...I realize that this is the Vileation Nation, not just the Amy Vileation Nation. So if you want to read more entries from the Kevin Vileation Nation, be sure to leave your comments of encouragement for him!

Oh, I think that's a great picture of Sharyn! And it makes me miss both you horribly.

Your post also made me miss, in no particular order: sunny summer days, Squirrel Hill, which also makes me miss Coldstone, and Smores. Mmm, smores.... :-)

Keep posting, it's wonderful to hear about your life!

Well I finally got around to reading the blog and lo and behold, there is a an ugly picture of me looking stupid in Squirrel Hill (notice that I'm wearing my African tribal necklace, however). Way to keep me on my toes, Mamie, you stinker!

Good times were had by all in Alexandria. I miss you, I miss you, I miss you!

I loved seeing pictures of Shannon, I mean Sharyn, on the blog. I hope to see more!

Just heard there was another Sharyn sighting recently - at GCC.

Amy, I am behind too! I have absolutely nothing to put on my blog. I am so glad you put a picture of a plant on yours - maybe I will do that too.
