I had a great time at Judy's baby shower on Saturday. It was so great to see her, her sisters, and mom! It was also fun to have my mom there for the celebrations. I cannot wait to meet Judy's baby girl in a few short months!
Yesterday morning, in the midst of Hurricane Sandy, P and several hundred others were sworn into the Virginia Bar. The ceremony was quicker than expected most likely due to travel plans being deterred from the storm. Unfortunately his parents, my dad, and Sheila were unable to attend due to the storm but that was completely understandable and safest for everyone. I did not take a lot of pictures because as soon as the ceremony was over, most people were trying to get out of there as quick as possible.

After some deliberations, P and I decided to drive back yesterday afternoon. I was pretty nervous about the drive but trusted P. We made sure to fill up the gas tank and Elizabeth was kind of enough to give us some water and snacks should we need them. Besides some wind gusts, the drive back was uneventful and we were safe and sound in DC within two hours of our departure. Since the rain was coming down fairly hard and the wind gusts were picking up, we only grabbed the essential bags from the car and Calvin and bolted inside the apartment. We quickly dropped our stuff and then dashed to the 24 hour CVS for food and snacks. Once we were well stocked, we spent the rest of the evening on the couch staying warm and clearing out the DVR.

Today both P and I are working from home. His law office and the federal government are both closed. We're thankful that we never lost power and hope those that are without it (including my mom!) have it restored quickly!
