Since 2020, we've lived together in a South Philly rowhouse. As many of you already know, we're both very invested in making it a welcoming, cozy space for ourselves, our friends, and our family. We've already taken on a number of small-scale renovation projects: painting, changing out light fixtures, installing new sinks and faucets, and sprucing up our outdoor patio space. Our next project is to take on our kitchen, where the cabinets and countertops date to the early years of the Obama administration. Some of that work we can handle ourselves, while other tasks (like hanging new cabinets) we'll need to hire out. Given that we've already got more stuff than we need (and more than our limited cabinet space can hold) we thought this would be a better ask!

Since we're traveling for the wedding (and staying in Charleston for a bit beforehand) we're planning a real honeymoon later in the summer. So far, our top destination choices include Mexico City, Nova Scotia, Iceland, or Mike's weird dream of taking a very long, luxurious train trip. We both enjoy traveling, and would love to have a fun trip to look forward to once all the wedding craziness winds down!
