DC Getaway...

My mom, my sister and I were able to spend a long weekend together in Washington DC to celebrate a belated 70th birthday for my mom. I'm not sure when the last time was that just the three of us were together, let alone for 4+ days.  

Day 1 (arrival day) Selfie...

We started out at the National Museum of the American Indian...

We then walked over to the US Capital...

Day 2 Selfie...

We started the day off at the Holocaust Museum...

It's an extraordinarily well-done museum for such a heavy and somber subject.

 After the museum, we walked the National Mall.  Anyone that has walked the mall, knows how many miles we clocked that day.  

Lots of miles clocked, lots of memories made.  It is powerful to see all the monuments and memorials and think about all this nation has been through in its short history...

More to come on our vacation soon!

I Heart Our Daughters....

 Today is National Daughter's Day... 

I couldn't be more proud of who these girls have become and I am so honored that I am their mom.

Quinn and Sullivan - I love you more than you will ever know!

Proof of Life...

Quinn is busy living her best life at college.  That said, she is pretty good about sending proof of life pictures so that we know she is still alive!  Here are some of her pics from the past few weeks...

Midnight Howl Run

I'm not sure the purpose of the fun run or why it became tradition, but thousands of students show up at midnight to run the race.

Packapalooza

Packapalooza is a day long event with street vendors, performances, activities and fireworks.  

Randomness

It was plant give away day on campus one day and Quinn, Paul and Avery each got one!

I am so happy that Quinn is settling into life on campus and finding a good balance between school and fun!
