Northern Virginia

We planned to be in Virginia for 5 days, staying with the Melendez's in Woodbridge. Sadly, the Wisneski's were away the whole time we were there, so we missed seeing them

When we arrived, guess what we saw;

The signs are everywhere!

Macy and I went along with Christine to an estate sale, where she came home with an amazing mink, Macy got a ridiculous christmas sweater and I resisted buying these amazing doors- 


Love that our church captured this moment of my reuniting with Eve and posted on their social media page where someone saw it and sent it to us- 


after church Christine planned an lovely brunch (which would last for 7 hours) for us to spend the afternoon with our old small group pals-





So sweet to see our kids pair up with the Mann's for a game of "corn dog" (Josephine's new name for corn hole!)





Every brunch needs a great selection of dessert, right? We heard the ice cream truck song and off we went to find it! We walked quite a ways, but it worked-



The guys could not believe we did it! The ice cream truck guy was so accomodating, especially when i wanted to pay our double digit bill in coins!

Melendez, Mann and McCullough kids all grown up!
And this just in from Connecticut-


Sparky is doing great, and apparently has a girlfriend now!

A chic-fil-a mom & me meet up with Macy's elementary school besties, Kately & Hannah-


They spent the afternoon on Katelyn's boat and then just had to revisit the neighborhood pool they spent many summers at together from 1st-5th grade!


It's so crazy that we now have 2 State Dept friends from our Jakarta days now living in NoVa. I spent the afternoon with Amanda, and then we all went over to the Lombardo's-


Love the sweet moments at "home"-







 And just like that, our VA time was over. Next up California...
