Bundled up for Coffee

Sunday morning, Mommy bundled me up for a quick walk to Caribou coffee. It was so cold outside! Thanks to Grandmom and Grandpop for the cozy hat and gloves!

As Aunt Joanie would say, "Ooo, my cheeks are wintery!"

Fun on the Porch

Being four floors up in an apartment that overlooks a busy shopping and restaurant area has its advantages. Clara loves to be out on the small prch looking at all of the people and cars hustling and bustling around. The sunlight and breezes are so nice too!

Her thinking face. She does this all the time when she's interested in something or looking at something.

Happy Halloween!

"Which one should I choose?"

"Can I have this one, daddy? Pretty please?"

Inspecting the pumpkin

All looks good

At Cox Farms, the closest Northern Virginia can get to a pumpkin patch!

William and Mary Part 3

The wedding reception was held at the Alumni House, and there was a beautiful grassy area with a replica of the original sundial from campus.

Cocktail hour with Daddy, Chris, Jasen, and Spud

Clara was more interested in the grass and the tiny ants crawling around

Our little family.

Walking to the reception, we stopped for a picture by the Sunken Gardens

I love this picture. It reminds me of the final walk through campus we took on our graduation day.

Clara in Williamsburg

We returned to Williamsburg and the William and Mary Campus on October 13 for a wedding. Once we arrived, we could not resist having lunch at the Cheese Shop. Clara had her first try on the bumpy brick walkways. She did well in the car, and she was pleasant and friendly with all of our friends. It also happened to be her 8 month birthday!
