Galentine's Day

Yesterday I got to participate in my first Galentine's Day with my friend MM!

What is Galentine's Day you ask? I'll just let my friend Leslie Knope explain:







So MM and I went to dinner at Tupelo Honey Cafe in downtown Greenville and then went to a Greenville Road Warriors Hockey game! I had never been to Tupelo Honey before and was super excited about trying it out. Unfortunately, it was the night before Valentine's day so the restaurant was a bit crazy, but we were able to eat in the back by the bar. Still good, though!

The biscuits were so good we ate them too fast to get a picture, so instead I got a picture of the honey!



Afterwards, we went to the hockey game! It was 'Stick it to Cancer' night so it was even better because everything supported a great cause! They even passed out glowsticks to be activated during a special moment although the whole arena chuckled because most of them had already done it!

ROWDY!




We are so excited about the hockey game! (We even got photobombed by "Crazy Uncle Perry" as he called himself)

We love hockey and Galentines Day!

That's a Nice Boulder




Last Saturday my friend AM and I went bouldering at an Indoor Climbing Gym called the Mountain Goat (its got a really cool mission - you should check it out here, after you finish reading this post of course!). Bouldering is a form of rock climbing that is done when you don't use ropes or harnesses.

I haven't been climbing in forever so I was super excited to go!  A and I had been trying to go for a while now so I was pumped we were finally able to make it happen. 

Luckily, A has a roommate who is a frequent climber so she had climbing shoes and chalk that we were able to borrow.  After a few practice climbs, we pretty much stuck to one wall with multiple routes on it. I was finally able to conquer the route I had been working on, but of course A had gone to the bathroom and didn't see it! There was one witness to my feat, but he wasn't nearly as excited as I was about it.

After about an hour and a half of climbing, A and I decided to call it a day. We may have left with tingly fingers and bruises on our legs (ok, just me), but we definitely had fun! Can't wait to go back again!
