our first post (goodbye, new york, hello, minnesota)

here goes! after admiring various of my talented friends' blogs, i've decided it's time to create one for kevin and me. we've had such a busy year so far and this seems like a great way to keep our friends and family updated on the shevlin family happenings.

kevin graduated from cornell with his mba in may, and in june we packed up all of our belongings and made our big move to minneapolis. from west coast, to east coast, to the midwest! it was a bittersweet move since it marked the end of two amazing years in new york, and it also meant the beginning of a new chapter in our life as a couple. it was hard to say goodbye to all of the friends we made in ithaca, but it's an exciting move for us and we now have friends to visit all over the country. we experienced a lot in ny - our engagement, planning a wedding, school for both of us, plenty  of wine drinking, kevin's band, gorgeous hikes, swims in the lake, barbecues, snow galore (we survived two east coast winters!), flip cup championships, board game nights, weekends in nyc, tammy playing ice-hockey (sans health insurance), the COLD...and, well, I could go on for a while.

now we're here in our new city, and we are feeling good about being in a place where we can start to put down some roots. we look forward to having lots of visitors here in minneapolis. come see us!
