weekend update

friday marked day 1 of hurricane season, and did not disappoint. we had flash flood warnings, tornado warnings, hail storm warnings, and it definitely rained in sheets all night. but, on the bright side, not only did i get to meet this little lady for the first time, but i got to see her in her rain jacket.  meet lola, my friend Daniela's adorable frenchie:
 saturday was another monumental moment. i retired from my personal shopper position at j.crew. it's been almost a year, and i'm ready to have my saturdays back. let the summer begin!
speaking of summer, tonight we had a BBQ to say a temporary farewell to friends going away from the summer, and so alex and i rode our bikes to and from a picnic spot along the Potomac. riding our bikes home, with the fireflies flickering and the giant full moon above us at dusk, it felt so perfectly summer. i love our life here in DC. really, i do.
