My Birthday Present

Yesterday was my birthday. For my birthday, I went to visit some good friends. I got to see these cute little faces everyday for 5 days. Best. Birthday. EVER.

Restaurant Week

It’s restaurant week in DC! I enjoyed a wonderful meal at O’Connell’s tonight. It was delicious and rich Irish food. I ate a lot of food and enjoyed it after 8pm.

For a 30 second laugh

First week back at work is going great. I love my classes–especially now that I’ve finally finished organizing the classes. I have a few more things to finish up–but we’re on the home stretch. I am supposed to help the youth in my ward create a music video for the Annandale Film Festival. I loveContinue reading “Great Start”

Babies

Bunches of babies are coming to earth in 2010. Some have already arrived. So far Ethan Kingsley and Adam Nathan are here! And more little cherubs are on their way! What I love the most is that these babies are coming to families that are amazing and strong. These babies are lucky kids. They areContinue reading “Babies”
