Birthdays!

Sohail and I celebrated our birthdays this weekend.

Breakfast on my birthday at our house.

The newspaper and a croissant were a perfect start to may 29th year.

Then we went to Annapolis to get away and stayed at this really cute B&B with a suite room.

Enjoying our suite.

Dinner overlooking the harbor.

In a neighborhood this morning.

Visiting the Naval Academy.

Sohail's Birthday

Happy Birthday my Love!

We had dinner at Kushi. I highly recommend it to DCites.

Sarah & Barney's wedding

Last weekend Sarah & Barney got married right outside of Asheville, NC. Because I know both of them from different times in my life, I got to see double the number of friends I normally see at weddings. The wedding itself was beautiful and the wedding was a lot of fun.
