April’s Baby Shower


Last weekend I headed to the Washington, D.C. area for April’s Baby Shower throw by one of April’s running buddies, Emily, in Potomac, Maryland. We had such a fantastic time! There were seven of us from the Biosphere MPA program at the party and I loved seeing Maeve, Janelle, Ellen, Amy, Beth and April! What a group of brilliant women with high-powered jobs! I also met several of April’s other friends and chatted with her mom, whom I haven’t seen in two years; it was great! The food was yummy, the house where the party was at was stunning, the conversation first rate, and the gifts for April plentiful! Above is a sampling of photographs from the party for you to enjoy.

I feel like it’s the year of the baby for us.
