Julia had a whirlwind weekend with several celebrations! On Saturday night, we took the girls to Martin's Tavern in Georgetown. We somehow landed "The Proposal Booth," where JFK proposed to Jackie, June 24, 1953. Everyone loved their entrees (especially me with the amazing liver!!!): lobster risotto, liver, fish and chips, and seafood paella. 
Julia has such good friends! Caitlyn drove from Cleveland to spend the weekend. The Holton girls came over Friday night for dinner, "pre-game" activities, and a sleepover. Julia made dinner; her delicious menu included baked pasta, prosciutto, salami, garlic green beans, tomato-mozzarella salad, and bread.
Our daughter is 21, wow. For her actual, Tuesday celebration, colleagues brought in a cake and took her out for Happy Hour! Then we grabbed her favorite 'hood dinner, Chipotle. The girl has pretty reasonable (low!) expectations of us. Steven did go above and beyond in gathering Snapchat birthday videos from colleagues that know her. Some sweet and some very funny (due to Steven's filter choices). The mouse picture was a video of Steven singing Happy Birthday...hilarious.
Yay--Julia and Steven had another chance to enjoy Deep Creek Lake with the Sarrges and Austins. Although there was some rain, they managed to get out on the water and enjoy some paddleboarding and floating mat time. I had class Saturday and Sunday...just one more weekend left.
Julia spent a fantastic week gathering data at the Great Basin National Park. Totally disconnected from technology, she was in tune with all things environmental, geographical, and climate related. We're so proud of how she has been able to shape both her education and her experiences to better her future!
Meanwhile at home, somehow, Steven, the cats, and I survived. 
Thanks, mom, for the great seats at "Jesus Christ Superstar." It was a hard act to follow "Hamilton," but still enjoyable.
