In 2010 I ... met Eliana Lynn

Baby season is in full swing! Among the piles of baby shower invites in my mail basket, I suppose it was inevitable that a few of those babies would actually be born. Such is the case with Eliana Lynn Rasmusson, born late Easter evening. Jenny and Toby kindly let Stacia and I meet her in the hospital today:

Stac & Ellie

Ellie & Me

It was a pleasure, Ellie. (And just the beginning of many more spring/summer baby greetings ... after all, Stac is up next!)

In 2010 I ... rocked out on Easter

In keeping with 2010's shows-on-holidays tradition, Passion Pit rocked First Ave on Easter ... and my camera was at the ready:

Not so into having my sweaty picture taken

It was a seriously fantastic show. The crowd was so into it! (Well, except for the guy who never once looked at the stage right next to us.) Since our group was having such a great time, we stuck around for the extremely smokey after-show DJ set with Passion Pit's drummer Nate Donmoyer at the helm:

Hayley, Jess, Megan & Patty

And because apparently 2 a.m. isn't late enough, H, J & I couldn't resist a last late-night stop at Little T's on the way home. At that hour, the remnants of a great show, nachos and cheap beer look like this:

What a hot mess. A really fun, really late, really great hot mess.
