The Pregnant Adventures of Nicholette and John

John and I continued our pregnant adventures this month by flying to the other side of the country to visit the east coast, a place neither of us had experienced. We flew to Washington D.C. and stayed with our friends Boy (Jordan) and Anali (and kind of Corbin because he practically lives at their apartment). The above picture is of John loving his fat in front of the birthplace of The Great Bambino, the greatest baseball player to have ever lived, Babe Ruth.
While exploring Baltimore with our bud Corbin, we strolled through the Little Italy section of town and got some delicious authentic italian cuisine.

Corbin passed out (with an empty bottle of Jack Daniels that we conveniently found) in front of the house of Edgar Allen Poe.

John and I in front of an awesome mural in the heart of Baltimore.

Anali and I waiting to get into the National Archives to see the Declaration of Independance, the Constitution, and a bunch of other important stuff.

After going through all of the Smithsonian Museums, we thought it a good idea to go see the new Night at the Museum movie since it is about the Smithsonian. It was fun to see a bunch of the things from the museums...like ABLE the space monkey!!! That concludes our travels for May, we've gotten lots of adventures in before the baby and we're still hoping for more!!

Sperry-Chapman Reunion: CALIFORNIA!








The Sperry-Chapman Reunion of 2009 was indeed a success. Chalk full of freebies and dirt cheap fun that we'll never regret...or forget:)

We hung out on Huntington Beach where John got fried because he doesn't believe in sunscreen sometimes. We also went to Disneyland where all of our dreams came true and we had the time of our lives. And the best part was...we stayed at a hotel that was $209 a night...for free thanks to Jessica and Quincy's blingy-osity with Wyndham. Or wait... maybe the best part was how we split meals at Red Robin and got all-you-can-eat fries and then Quincy wrote a thank you note to Joel, our waiter. I don't know, there was too much fun to tell!!!!
