We love our niece!

This weekend Michael and I went to Virginia for sweet Ellie's christening. She was such a good girl! I've uploaded a few gems from the weekend. Here's the happy family.
Here are some snaps of the cutie in her christening gown. J.P. and Maureen made sure to dress in pink, too. Below is a picture of the main event at Our Lady Queen of Peace in Arlington. Alex and Margie (the Godparents) look on with Mo and J.P. as Ellie is baptized!


The family got together at J.P. and Maureen's before and after the christening to celebrate.










Ellie loves her Great Granddad.

Ellie enjoyed opening her gifts.

The balloon animals were a big hit. Uncle Buddy had a blast, as you can see.

Happy girl!

Danny and Michael

Good Times in Boulder

Luckily Emily and I had the same spring break this year, so we were able to go see Sara and Scott in Boulder. One of the highlights of the trip was seeing Pete Snowdon again! He and his girlfriend, Katie, live in Denver. It was so much fun to be together again. Apart from being a lawyer, Pete hasn't changed a bit. Here's a shot of the Arlington reunion. We just need Mindy and Julia and we'd be back in high school again!
I was also able to meet the light of Sara and Scott's lives...Millie and Aspen. It was nice to finally meet these gems in person.
This is a great shot of Em, Sag, and the kitties, of course.

Sara and Scott took us on a short drive for a beautiful view of the Flatirons. This is what the Holladays see everyday. Wow.

It actually snowed our last night in Boulder. This was nothing for these Coloradans, but my blood has gone south fast. Turns out I don't miss the snow as much as I thought I did. It's cold!!
