Maca & Alex – MARRIED!
All of the posts from Chile have been leading up to this: Maca and Alex’s wedding day! In the last post we explained that we woke up early on their wedding day to make those centerpieces, and we didn’t go back to bed until almost 24 hours later. Chileans don’t just throw a reception for a […]

Finer things
I’m feeling a little low after a defeating evening watching the election results roll in, so I’m going to focus on the happier things going on in the Los Rodriguez Life. This past weekend we celebrated our good friends Eric and Megan at their beautiful wedding! I’ve known Eric since my freshman year in college. […]

Congratulations David and Sarah!
Last weekend Javier and I took a quick day trip to Bryantsville, Kentucky where two of our dear friends David and Sarah tied the knot. The wedding was held at a lovely farm outside of Lexington, KY, outdoors under a weeping willow next to a pretty little pond on the property. We were surrounded by […]

Double wedding weekend!
Last weekend was an insane, crazy whirlwind mixture of fun, friends, dresses, cameras, brides and grooms, wine, beer, coffee, exhaustion, second winds, food, music, scenic views and a million other amazing things. Friday kicked off the weekend festivities with Nikita and Jordan’s rehearsal dinner back at Sylvia’s house where her wedding shower was. The whole […]

Nikita is getting married!
I cannot believe this wedding is finally (almost) here! Nikita and I were roommates sophomore through senior year of college. She and Jordan started dating a few months before Javi and I did, and she knew from the start that she wanted to marry him! They got engaged last summer and now the wedding is […]

McClure takeover: congratulations Andrew and Camala!
Well, I’m pretty sure I’m all traveled out for the month of April! Javier and I just returned with my parents from a long drive home from Destin, where my cousin Andrew married his lovely new wife Camala. My parents and I drove down to Destin on Wednesday, stopping overnight in Birmingham and arriving in […]

Congratulations Danielle and Chris!!!!
I’m going to need the person out there working on time travel to hurry it on up. I know there’s someone out there working on it – just like there’s surely someone working on teleportation, telepathy, maybe a dog bark-to-English translator like in the movie “Up”. But really, let’s step on the gas with that […]

Danielle is getting married!
It’s Danielle’s wedding week!!! I feel like I’ve been waiting for this wedding for almost a decade! As soon as Danielle and Chris started dating back in 2004, everyone knew that that was it for those two. They make such a great couple and Chris immediately fell in with our group of friends like he […]

Happy 35th Anniversary J&A!
It’s my parents’ 35th anniversary!! My parents are HUGE UofL basketball fans and decided to celebrate their anniversary with a drive down to Memphis to see UofL play Memphis. Sounds like the perfect way to celebrate – here’s a photo that my dad posted on facebook last night with the caption “35th anniversary is paper, […]

Time to celebrate!
Sometimes, it’s best to just find things to celebrate to a) not feel guilty about having some fun (you’re celebrating something! It must be legitimate!) and b) to force yourself to enjoy a day, or even a few hours, off. Over the last few days, we’ve found some things to celebrate. Javier had a long […]

Wedding Weekend Part 2!
Part two of our wedding weekend starts on Saturday morning after Ellen’s wedding. We rode with my parents down to Birmingham, Alabama for our friend Jennifer Faulkner’s wedding. My brother and I grew up visiting the Faulkners in Birmingham whenever we’d go down to see my grandparents in Alabama. My dad spent part of his […]

Happy anniversary Tara and Jorge!
Back in January I posted about my incredible study abroad experience in Santiago de Compostela in 2006. Aside from that one 6-month trip I’ve been back to Santiago de Compostela twice – once for two months in the summer of 2007 to visit friends and do the Camino for my senior thesis and again in […]

Javier and I hopped on a plane to Chile two days after our first wedding to head down to prepare for Christmas there and our second wedding the day after Christmas. My mom, dad and brother also came down, which was […]

Los Rodriguez Wedding
I already wrote out this long, detailed post about all the fun aspects of our wedding, but it was boring and I’d hate to have a boring post describing of one of the best days of my life, and one of the most fun parties I’ve ever been to. So here’s a few quick words […]

Los Rodriguez Anniversary
It’s our 2-year wedding anniversary! Happy day! Es nuestro segundo aniversario! Feliz dia!! Our engagement story is kind of funny, and worth telling before I post anything about our wedding, which I’ll do tomorrow. Javi and I both volunteered for a local Vacation Bible School in the summer of 2009, and on our way to […]

Adventures in Chicago – Aventuras en Chicago
Javi and I are currently sprawled out on the sofa recovering from a crazy weekend (well, for me it’s been 10 days!) in Chicago. I posted last week about my weekend in Wisconsin, after which I rode back to Chicago with my friends and stayed at my brother’s apartment for a few days with my […]
