What a Weekend!

What a weekend! Friday night I got to celebrate a friend’s birthday with some good ol’ frozen yogurt at Skinny Dip. I have been friends with Amy since preschool and I love when she comes in town because we
get to catch up on everything we miss from our weekly phone dates or text messages.

Saturday I went to my very first law school graduation. My friend Kyla graduated from North Carolina Central University School of Law. The graduation ceremony was beyond enjoyable. All of the commencement speeches were excellent - intriguing and inspirational. You know that it is an excellent graduation ceremony when those of us who attended could not stop talking about it all throughout the lunch which followed.

Sunday was Mother’s Day and I got to spend it at a Ladies’ Breakfast
at our church, followed by a lunch at this adorable table set for two!


The weekend concluded Sunday night when I went to the Michael Stagliano concert at the Pour House Music Hall in Raleigh. For those of you who know me pretty well, you know that my guilty pleasure for
the last ten years has been television show The Bacherlor/The Bachelorette. Michael was one of the bachelors on Deanna’s season of the Bachelorette and was Season 2’s winner of the Bachelor Pad. Michael is now traveling the country promoting his music. Not only did Michael put on a fantastic show, we were also excited because fellow Bachelorette/Bachelor Pad contestant Graham Bunn (Raleigh native) made a surprise appearance un-be knowing to Michael as well. The atmosphere at the Pour House is very relaxing so it was a great opportunity to meet both of them and have genuine conversations! After the concert
Graham invited a group of us to join them next door at the Irish pub “Tir na Nog.” We had a great time hanging out with them as we were the only people in the restaurant. Both Graham and Michael were very
down-to-earth, full of life and beyond welcoming of their friendship.We all joked at the end of the night that we were now all best friends! (Sounds good to me!) Michael has a new album coming out on itunes next week (according to him, 10 days!) Be sure to check it out and if he is coming to a town near you, be sure to go see him in concert!
