Military Man...

Tim and I have met some wonderful people since living here in Northern Virginia, and especially through our church, Portico Arlington. Rich and Ashley are two of those people. They moved to this area last summer from Korea, because Rich is in the military. In September, they had a baby boy, Everett, who is super adorable... and has some incredible hair!


Rich will be deploying to the Middle East very soon, so we decided to throw him a surprise going-away/birthday party (his birthday was in mid-February) at one of his favorite restaurants, Chadwick's. It was hard to keep a secret, but turned out to be quite a success...He was so surprised!

Little Miss Audrey waiting for the fun to start!
Audrey found a friend! She was so cute looking out the window waiting for the guests-of-honor to arrive!
Party decor, thanks to the help and creativity of my friend Starr!






SURPRISE!

Enjoying food, fun, and great company.


The whole gang!

We had an after-party at our house, complete with delicious desserts from Shilla, a local Asian bakery.

Peanut Butter chocolate chip cookies, dark chocolate mints, and Red Bean Walnut cookies.

Blowing out his birthday candles!

We barely made a dent in all the cakes...

We will miss you, Rich! Good Luck and we will see you again soon!
