Jess, Lindsay, Sarah, Me The lovely couple Wonderful reception! Chilly day, but my pregnant self loved that. Sarah looked gorgeous and her and Ed are just darling together! So fun to see old friends!
Dave took us on an awesome Saturday date hiking! It was gorgeous! Even little blue ( our baby's womb name) kept up with us as we climbed the rocks and endured the switchbacks.
So Mimi and Matt came to D.C.! How fun is that! I was so excited! I wish they lived closer. We would hang out with them everyday if they did! We had so much fun. We went to the Natural History Museum and had a delicious dinner together. What a blast! Josh is too funny. He is a busy little guy and we love him! Mimi and Matt you two are such wonderful friends! I am so glad we were able to get together!
Our anniversary was on Sunday July 11, so we decided to party hard on Saturday. We were out all afternoon khaiking. We explored the Potomac River from River Bend Park, where we set sail. It started off as a cloudy day, but nice and cool. We thought we were going to get poured on, but no drop of rain touched us. The sun even came out later on. We chased some water wildlife. Dave stalked the ducks, while I got a kick out of this Blue Herring that stood on branches that lay over the water. We kept running into the big bird! Later that evening we went out to the Olive Garden. Got to love this pregnancy business, my taste buds are all crazy. I am usually in the mood for tomatoes or pasta, never meat. So Olive Garden won! We had a delicious dinner and a fabulous date! We may have even fallen in love all over again! I love anniversaries!
Dave, me, Tara, and Biggins got into the spirit of Independence Day by learning all about Frederick Douglas, a great African American abolitionist. Tara is the lovely sister of Keyvan, our dear friend from Utah that we miss! Tara is working in D.C and we decided to get together. We loved her. She was fun, talkative, and we enjoyed getting to know her!
