The month started out with a as-always-wonderful visit from Doria and the Zamchecks. It was her birthday, so Rosemary and Louis got to tag along on a family celebration -- art on the graffiti wall at Castle Hill. She even lost a tooth for the occasion! We had a great time getting to see Kyle's show with the Zamchecks as well as hearing Mark play piano one evening at the Butterfly Bar.
James and I had a fabulous trip to New Orleans -- my first time! -- for Tim Maloney's wedding while my parents watched the kids. It was a nice reunion with his high school friends, and I had a blast eating oysters and buying fascinators at the French Market, not to mention a very fun bike ride all around town on Sunday, a southern salon experience with Jill, and the traditional second line brass band that accompanied the wedding party out of the church. It was amazing to be able to sleep in and do whatever we wanted for three days.
Before we left, we celebrated Nana's birthday with a lovely dinner at Olive and June, and he participated in the school "fun run" with Louis and Rosemary:
While we were gone, we did miss a great event: our first egg!
Soon followed by many others:
More wonderful Happy Hikers adventures -- so great to have water back in the greenbelt near our house:

Very exciting (for me) is my new bed that I designed and Trevor made -- solid walnut:
Pizza making party at Alicia's to benefit St. Mark's:
Louis and I started an "Art and Tinkering" class which was really top-notch and perfect for Louis who is really a talented artist (says me) -- and loves power tools! Below, his very own jigsaw puzzle:
We had a very unique and fun Valentine's day rolling our own sushi at the Johnson's house. It was really, really good:
