The hardest thing about being a resident...

...is missing out on family get togethers, especially when we're celebrating a soon-to-arrive baby and an engagement!!!

Tracy and Cliff are expecting their little boy Chase to arrive May 13th. What a beautiful mom-to-be! Here are a couple pics from her baby shower. 

The next day, Dave popped the question to my cousin Ally in front of the whole family!!! Way to go Dave!! Someone caught it on video (here) too. Despite Ally's perfect manicure, she says she had no idea it was coming. 

So happy for everyone, and so sad to have missed the festivities.

Love you all!

Today is the March for our Lives in DC. Being from the neighboring town of where the tragic Sandy Hook shooting took place almost 5 years ago, and of course having many amazing school-aged kids in our family, this issue is something that we care very much about. Here are our marchers heading out this morning...

 

A Shower for Sheela in Charlottesville

Say that ten times fast!

We're so excited to meet baby Linstrum. Here are a few pics from the baby shower we threw for Sheela at her lovely home in Charlottesville. I remember being so touched by the outpouring of love and excitement at Dylan's shower, I could tell Sheela was equally as impressed. Hurry up baby L, we're anxiously awaiting your arrival. 

21 months (and one day)

...but who's counting?
