The S's – Jeremy, Cathe, Mary, Jude, and Leo – are leaving us (tomorrow!), moving back to the east coast, where C's family lives. So we had them and Elizabeth over for a farewell dinner on Monday.

E and M.

L with G and BB.

At the kids' table: J, M, BB and G.

I made Drew's favorite, soy sauce chicken, with a carrot and celery stir fry.

Playing footsy under the table.




Pie (peach) and ice cream.


Some champagne: here's to the only people we know who are trying to *get back* to DC.




A smooch for E.


And in a final burst from Drew, "You weren't that good of friends anyway!" (said in jest).
