Sudden Spring Update

Pete and Kelly got married in October. They've been learning and growing and getting to love each other better. It's been a good and tough first few months of marriage. But, they made it through the winter, in spite of their soot-encrusted apartment (gotta love the gas sometimes--we can't even get it off the porcelain in the bathroom) and the cold outside. They are thankful for a shortish, mildish winter, even though Pete is from Connecticut.

Pete and Kelly are having fun setting up house and starting a photography business. Pete is studying for school again, and Kelly is letting him. Kelly has been going to sleep abnormally early, and Pete has been getting up abnormally early. But, we enjoy the time we have together during the days.

Pete just got his topic for his senior seminar paper, and he is quite excited about it. Kelly is a bit clueless about the law of the thing, but wondering what kind of cracks Pete can come up with for "Legal Criteria for Protecting the Right to Life of Incompetent People."

Today, Pete and Kelly drove to Leesburg and South Street Under for lunch, and then drove back by way of a little-known country road. We saw running horses in a pasture beside the country road. It was pretty.

Pete and Kelly are excited because they will soon have Pete's sister Amy and brother-in-law David in Maryland, along with two of our nices and nephlets! We're looking forward to visiting, photographing, gifting, and getting to know them a bit better--provided God doesn't send US out to California when Pete passes the Bar next year. Because he will.

Pete and Kelly are getting ready for a fun secret that happens on a Tuesday. :-D You know we'll post some pictures when it happens!

So here is our update for a sudden spring day.

And here are a couple of new favorite pictures. Enjoy!
