We hope to buy a house in Maryland or DC soon!

Throughout 2026, we're fundraising for Rainbow Railroad, which ensures LGBTQI+ refugees have the foundation to rebuild their lives in safety. RR ensures they can secure a room in a safe house, board a flight, or receive cash to help them access food, medicine, or other immediate relief. On average, RR receives one request for help every half hour. Donate via this Zola page or directly here: https://rainbowrailroad2026.funraise.org/fundraiser/donna-kelly's-fundraiser

Fund a date night in our old DC neighborhood at one of our favorite spots, Chicatana! Endless tacos. The dream.

We have tea time each night to catch up on the day and wind down! Help fund our nightly tradition for our first year of marriage.

Right after the wedding weekend, we plan to rent a cabin for a few days of no plans, no cell service, and plenty of outdoor adventures.

We want to garden plenty this Summer!

Our camping theme continues!

We'd love to be able to take our bikes to a nearby park! This would be a bike rack for our car.

We love hanging out by the fire!

At Open City diner, our first date!

Perfect for our herb garden!

To go with our new espresso machine! Again, fancy lattes are our weakness.

Donna knows way too much about water with her work. This has led to a long-term obsession with getting a gravity water filter that will work for years. Kelly is along for the ride with this one.

It's veggie planting time!

Costco brings us so much joy and so much cheese!

We've been using an old tent that is a bit too well loved. We're hoping to use a new one on camping adventures this year!

Yes, we are going to be those people who have a joint sleeping bag (with the option that it can zip into two! Versatile!). Yes, we know this is ridiculous. But also excellent.

Fancy lattes are our weakness.

We love having coffee on our back patio and watching the birds. We are definitely ready to retire. We currently share 1 pair of binoculars and are attempting to fix that problem!

A favorite spot to go get dinner and drinks in our neighborhood is Pennyroyal Station. We'd cheers in your honor!

We love kayaking and have a dream of buying a used one to try out in a lake near our place!
