Elizabeth Irwin, 314 East 9th St., Apt 6, New York, NY 10003; esirwin@gmail.com The Class of 2000 has, as always, been very busy since the last update! Since her move in the fall, Maria Ball Cloud has been loving Atlanta— especially since it means she gets to see Nicole Dicharry Jordan and Maggie Temple Bailey so much more. Maggie and her husband Matt jumped into parenthood with both feet when their twin girls Madison and Carter arrived in November. Catherine Powell and her hubby Jason are still frolicking in marital bliss down in Jackson, Miss. Catherine loves her job working as the Assistant Director and College Advisor at a nonprofit devoted to removing barriers for underrepresented students in the college admission and financial aid process. Ann Robertson Vaughters is keeping herself busy with work, charity events, and lots of activities with her girls Elsie Jane and Lee. Over the holidays, the Vaughters girls got lunch with their godmothers Ibbie Hedrick and Elizabeth Irwin. When not doting on her goddaughters, Ibbie has been spending a lot of time with her new dog Ruckus, an adorable beagle from the Richmond SPCA. Elizabeth had a far too quick (but very delicious) Christmas brunch with her aunt Eleanor Deane Bierbower ’75 and her cousins on her way to Richmond for the holidays to get away from all the NYC craziness! After running her first half marathon in New Orleans in January (with Dede Deane Irwin ’68 and Louise Irwin Welch ’96 cheering her on), Elizabeth signed up for another year of fundraising for the Alzheimer’s Association as a part of their annual Blondes vs. Brunettes flag football competition – go Team Blonde!! Catherine Mason Hammer loves teaching 7th Grade World History at St. C, and Lindsay Cowles Arrington’s business is booming! Her wallpapers were featured in “House Beautiful,” and she recently launched a line of

pillows, cummerbunds, and bowties. Lindsay got married in October 2014, with classmates Kate Marshall Stikeleather and Becca Logue Thomson as bridesmaids. For someone who claims to have “nothing to report,” Becca sure seems pretty busy to me! Taking a break from running about London with her munchkin Georgia, the whole adorable Thomson fam went with Becca’s mom to Scotland for Spring Break. Oh. And they just bought a house in Wimbledon—is anyone else up for a trip to watch some tennis with the Thomsons?? Just outside of Richmond, Ashley Taylor Jaffee and her husband Mike welcomed their sweet daughter Naomi Michelle in October. The Jaffees live in Harrisonburg, Va., where Ashley is an Assistant Professor of Social Studies Education at JMU. Further south, Megan Gross White and her family —including new baby girl Holland, born February 2015—are moving to Durham for her husband’s fellowship at Duke University in July.
