weekend snippets

Clara and Michael came to DC [and Clara was our first official guest in our new apartment!]:


We went to the Natural History Museum and saw giant whales:


After I saw how well they were getting along, I tried really hard to convince Will to bring this guy home with us, but he pointed out that it might...overpower the apartment:


Alice came too, and greatly appreciated the giraffes and hippos:


We went out to dinner with Michael's sister Lizzie, who baked Clara a surprise birthday cake!  This is how you know you're not grown-up yet: you have no cute, colorful birthday candles in your cupboard and have to grab a pillar candle to make a wish.  No, really.  It has nothing to do with loans or jobs or anything.


We got to take Clara to our much-loved St. Mary's for mass:


And we discovered that fresh-squeezed orange juice and sparkling rosé is way way yummy...and has definitely replaced traditional mimosas in this household.  Make one asap.  Please.


Hope you all had a lovely weekend!
