Andrey and I are currently spending time in northern Virginia. Andrey is at a work-related retreat this week and I am so happy to be spending quality time with our good friends Sean & Shannon and their two kids. Sean & Shannon were some of our closest friends in Thailand until late last year when they moved to the DC area. We've missed them.
My mom and Andrey's parents were here to see us for a few days. My mom flew in from Alabama and The Sawchenkos "stopped by" on the their cross-the-continent trip from the Vancouver area to the east coast of Canada. They are on quite the road trip, getting to know their new motor home. A day was spent at the Arlington National Cemetary where my cousin is buried. We picked the best day for being outside as it got up to the 80s and was sunny and clear. The cherry blossoms and dogwoods are in bloom and are truly magnificent this time of year. It was wonderful to spend quality time with our parents (minus my dad who couldn't make it - we missed you Dad!). We are so grateful for their love, generosity and support in our lives.
We'll be here for another week before heading to Seattle for a few days. We can't wait to see our good friends there and visit our favorite coffee shops.
