Weekend Fun

Julia is in the home stretch. Over the weekend, she picked up her friend Megan from the airport, who was returning from interviewing at the University of Alaska in Fairbanks. Julia and Megan may rent a house together (one option is pictured below). There is a lot still up in the air on the plan for the fall, so we'll see. Julia went on a walk with Matt and kitty-cat Mark.

We went to Deep Creek Lake with the Sarrges and Austins. Fun time! Tony and Lisa are generous hosts, and it was especially nice to escape the humidity of DC. 

July 4 Weekend

For Julia, this weekend was all about working nonstop, with a few FaceTime calls with us and Benjamin thrown in. Also shown are Julia's batch cooking of chicken thighs (yum!). In DC, we had a family dinner with the Westfalls—met Sarah (Noreen's cousin from Ireland). Noreen cooked up a storm! I didn't do well with my candid photography—eyes closed, unfortunately. Steven captured a nice picture of me and mom.
