Week 12-13: Spring Break! Puppy!

Last week, I couldn't connect to blogger.com on Sunday (or Monday or Tuesday...), so there was no update. Sorry about that.


In other news, my mom and dad got a new puppy!


Mariah and Lucy (the new puppy) get along very nicely, see?


No, really, they do.



We had a family dinner on Friday night so I could get my baby-cousin fix in.


I also went to the Joslyn Art Museum (twice!) to see the St. John's Bible. This is an amazing project. The monks of St. John's Abbey in Minnesota decided to commemorate the new millennium by commissioning a hand-written illuminated Bible -- the first one in five hundred years! Right now the display consists of the first two volumes to be completed (out of seven), Psalms and Gospels and Acts. It's absolutely beautiful.


Some events from last week:


Adam made dinner at my house again, and we watched another disc of The Lord of the Rings. He was very proud. :)


He even did the dishes!


It's getting to be spring in Maryland. Two weeks ago, on Monday, the high was 84 degrees! The temperature went back down into the 40s, but some flowers are still blooming (including the most beautiful flower, the dandelion!).
