PERSONAL PROJECT // FIRST DAY OF 9TH GRADE

Greydon was very anxious to start high school this morning. You can see it on his face. I’ll leave it at that.

He has golf practice this afternoon for the school team, so I hope this will give him an outlet and he will make some new friends.

Barbie Garden Party

Jumping on the Barbie bandwagon! I was asked to cover the Barbie Garden Party at the British Embassy in Washington, DC for Warner Bros. Discovery’s screening of the movie. Despite the oppressive humidity, it was such a fun event. There was more pink than a cotton candy factory!

CNN’s Abby Phillip interviewed Greta Gerwig on the steps of the Embassy, and she shared cute stories of Margot Robbie and Ryan Gosling. The British Embassy was chosen to host the party because the Barbie Movie was filmed in England, so it was a celebration of talent across the pond. And if you’re wondering, Greta wore green and claimed because it’s on the opposite side of the color wheel from pink she would make us all stand out. Cute, Greta, cute. ;-)

You might recognize a few familiar faces. When you live in the DC area our local celebrities are usually news journalists and government officials. You will come upon them and always ask yourself, “Do I know them? They look so familiar.” Enjoy some photos!

Yes, that's Linda Carter on the left. Wonder Woman for those of you who don't know. I had the brass to tell her I used to dress up as her in my Wonder Woman Underoos when I was a little girl. She hugged me, we chatted for a moment, and then we took a selfie on her phone. I’ll never hear from her again.

Evie's 16th Birthday Party

We really lucked out with some lingering rain clouds and a beautiful sunset for Evie’s 16th birthday last weekend with her gal-pals, boyfriend, Mom and Aunt. What a sweet group. Evie just radiates joy!
