Biking and Book Festival

Biking and studying weekend in Albuquerque. Julia had her bike shipped from DC, so now she has a bit more freedom. Benjamin has some flight tests this week, so he's been busy studying.

In DC, we went to the National Book Festival with Vera, Maggie, Vickie, Katie, and Brenda. Despite the road closures and hustle and bustle of the Grand Prix race, the convention center was packed with people!

Detroit Wedding

Julia and Benjamin went to Detroit, MI, for Hannah and Ben's wedding (St. Paul friends). Fun pictures! On the home front, Tony and Lisa went on a motorcycle road trip. Vera, Maggie, Vickie, and Mom came over to see 2201. They brought us a beautiful orchid and taught us some impressive yoga poses.

Line Dancing

Julia, Benjamin, and friends went to a place called Sawmill Market (a food hall) and then to the Dirty Bourbon--a line dancing bar! Unfortunately, no images or videos of the line dancing were shared! :)

Birthdays Together

We celebrated Julia's 30th birthday and my 55th birthday this weekend. It was so special to have Julia and Benjamin here and to spend time with family and friends. We showed them the new house at 2201 Observatory PL, NW, and Julia arrived early enough to play pickleball with the family! We're so blessed and thankful.
