Jeana Lee

The last weekend in August Daves sister, Jeana, visited DC on a business trip which was lucky for us :) Uncle Ken took us all out to WildFire, which was amazing, and then we drove her around all night showing her the sights Dave and Becca style (which is not very impressive, sorry) and then the next night she came to the house and hung out for a bit between sessions. It was obviously so fun to see Jeana and chat it up with her all night :) The greatest thing for me personally is to see my Dave spending time with his siblings he loves so very much, its a very sweet thing.





Thank you uncle Ken for treating us all to an excellent evening, We love you and Patty so much!


Now for some random footage of Becca playing around with the camera waiting for Dave to get out of class...


On my way to pick up Dave

This Fancy shrine on Daves campus

"DAVE WHY WONT YOU STOP AND POSE?! CANT YOU SEE IM TRYING TO TAKE YOUR PICTURE?!? JUST STAND THERE... JUST STAND THERE, DAVE LISTEN TO ME!!!"

The reason we're here

OK :) This is a really happy post for me because I get to show you actual footage of why we're here in DC and what it is like. Dave has started school this week and I will tell you its going to be an adjustment but you know, we both have been through harder things.
Im happy to post these pics because it reminds me the blessings Dave and I have been given. First and foremost , the fact that we get to be together through it all, share our endeavors with each other and witness the outcome of each experience together. I am so ready to support Dave in every way and let him lean on me for whatever he needs, and he is constantly proving his love and support whenever I need some encouragement... I could go on for pages about my appreciation for my man and what we've been blessed with, but this is not my journal haha so lets get back to the pics!!


Cute Dave showing off his back pack and cutting edge study desk... He has been indulging me with taking a bunch of pictures to record his big week


Dave's Befuddled face while holding up his work badge and his school ID... How he's gonna juggle both we will soon find out

Life after the Internship

Well a lot has happened since April 30 when our jobs ended, and I havent taken pictures of any of it!! so there will be quite a bit of writing which if you havent noticed, I dont really like all the writing so I'll try to throw in some random pics for interesting sake.


These are Daves office women haha He hates it when I refer to them in such ways but I'm the one writing the post so, I get to say whatever I want :) Love you Dave. But these girls are all very nice and have really helped Dave with nice referrals.


















(sorry about the pics ma and pop, theyre the only ones I have!)
So after his internship We spent some time in New York which I posted pics of, and then we drove 20 hours to Colleyville Texas!!! My sister,Cas, was visiting my parents the same week Dave and I came and it was really fun to spend time in their new house with her and my parents :) Love you guys so so much!!


(Lee fam a year ago, still the newest I have)

(Smith fam last Christmas)

After visiting Texas we drove another20hours to good ole L town. We got to spend great time with our beloved families and friends, eat at our favorite restaurants, and of course go to my salon and do some fabulous hair!!


All in all Dave and I had a really great four weeks of play time :) Now Dave accepted a full time position in his old office and we're back in DC!!
For those of you who dont know, Dave has made the decision to work full time on Capitol Hill while going to school in the evenings. He has chosen to go to the Columbus School of Law (Alexis) at Catholic University of America. Im very very proud of my man and support his ambition for these next three years.

We feel so happy to be back. Vienna is such a great place with great opportunities for our lil two person family.

So thats my YEAR long post haha hope you liked it!!! AND LEAVE SOME COMMENTS PEEPS, YOURE HANGIN ME OUT TO DRY!! love you ;)
