The Adventures of Elliott and Lucy: SAS Reunion Weekend

I was fortunate to spend two of my high school years at St. Andrew's School. While there, I forged friendships that will last a lifetime. For the past few years, our group of six friends has been able to convene at reunions, bachelorette parties, and weddings. Knowing we didn't have anything planned for this year, we vowed to create our own annual reunion. This plan was hatched on the dance floor at Caroline's wedding while we professed our love for one another. When I emailed everyone six months ago to set a date, we were all shocked that the first suggested weekend worked for everyone! So, a year later, we got our reunion. Sadly, Jack and Caroline were unable to come due to a family emergency. We missed them dearly and look forward to having the whole clan next year.

Here are the pictures from Friday night and Saturday on the beach. I started this blog post about five days ago so I'm going to be brief and get this up.

Elliott and Katherine meeting each other under the close supervision of Kate and Trevor. Anne and Steve look on.

Woah! Stripes!

Holy cuteness. Katherine was very interested in her bathing suit, as was I. Girl clothes are so cute. Elliott better have a sister (or girl cousin) someday so I can pick out cute little outfits.

We took about a million pictures of these two.

Anne and Kate. Anne came all the way from Beirut, Lebanon. And Kate from DC with a one year old. Probably an equivalent level of effort.

Genevieve and Elliott. G arrived from San Francisco at 3 am on Saturday. Travel trooper.

Working on walking. Nope, we're not there yet, but we're close.

Katherine is so calm and delicate compared to Elliott. She's two months older and he has about four pounds on her (a lot when you weigh 19 and 23 pounds).
