How to spend a gorgeous spring weekend...

*Ooh-ing and ah-ing over all the pink frills and pretties at a baby shower for a good friend. (Congrats to Brooke and baby Olivia! Can't wait to meet her!)

*Golfing in perfect 60 something degree weather with a view of the monuments (there are perks to your wife being at a baby shower, although he'd never openly say that :)).

*Braving the crowds to see the National Arboretum's Azaleas.






*Getting in a few good smooches (yeah yeah...you're probably grossed out...but it's what we do :) MWAH)




*Walking gorgeous, forestry trails that have sudden bursts of colors from the azaleas randomly mixed in.








*Strolling a more controlled, orderly garden of azaleas (that P.S...cost $2million a year to maintain. WHOA buddy... thank you generous (and WAY too wealthy) flower donors!)





*Admiring the state flower (and tree) of Virginia--the dogwood. You should see them in pink...beautiful.




*Celebrating a 40th birthday at a good friend's Luau, and reconnecting with friends who have moved out of the ward.

*Finding out at stake conference that WE'RE moving out of the ward. 3 wards in our building have now become 5, and we were one of the "lucky" winners who got booted out of our ward and will be joining a different ward... and we'll be moving back to a 3-6pm time slot (kinda a bummer...but we're hoping to make the best of it. I'm sure it happened for a reason...some reason... :))

*Getting your bumper all scratch and gouged by a landscape truck (ok...don't recommend this one... at all. Should I really be surprised, though? Poor Tink seems to be on a 6 month cycle. Soooooooo ready for a garage. But at least my knight in shining armour is taking care of dealing with it all...love that kid.)

*Chatting about anything and everything Disney related in a vain attempt to get even MORE excited for our upcoming vacation (like THAT's possible).




WELCOME SPRING!!! YAYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!

Wow, those azaleas are to die for! (Or pay millions of bucks for.) they are so beautiful and so is the couple.

That's crazy about the ward. I hope the additional friends in the new ward are fantastic and you get to brings some friends with you. This means you're no longer in young women, too? That's sad. You seem like a fantastic really dedicated leader.

Hope you are having fun on your vacay!
