Our first holiday Easter in this new city was low key, but interesting. After church, we decided to go to the Tidal Basin to check out the Cherry Blossom Festival while the trees were in full bloom. We have heard so much about them, and had seen that there is a festival to go along with […]

First Week In DC
Our physical move to DC is finally over. And I say finally, as it seemed to drag on for a while. As thankful as we were for the lack of vehicle issues, or lack of broken items, our move was not without its own stress. Dustin arrived 3 weeks ahead of us (myself and our […]

Big News
We saw this past year year fly by quicker than we thought possible. 2017 was the best year of marriage, and the best year of our adventure together. From amazing kids entering our lives through fostering, to seeing Paris; last year was more than amazing. We think 2018 will require us to take steps […]
6 Days in Paris…Davis Style
My dream of visiting Paris finally came true. It was amazing, of course. Everything in Paris is beautiful and has a story. As I am a history nut, the week was filled with me in awe of everything the moment we stepped out the door. We had quite a long list of to do’s and […]
Paris Food: Caffeine, Carbs, & Sugar
“Paris Food” are 2 of my favorite words put together. While Dustin is a little bit more adventurous with foods while traveling, we stuck to the main 3 food groups: coffee, carbs, and sugar.

1 Hour as a Tourist
A last minute trip to Waxahachie, TX came up at the end of April. While we were there for an unplanned family event, we took our #3 and my sister (Emily) to the downtown area for a little over an hour to walk around. The weekend was an emotional one, and our #3 had been […]

22 Hours in Memphis
This past weekend I went with my friend Brittany to go see “The Sound of Music” in Memphis. It really was a whirlwind trip. We arrived Saturday afternoon, to have just enough time to get ready and head to the Orpheum Theatre for the show. It was really cold and overcast the majority of the […]

Weekend Fun
Last weekend we, as a party of 3, decided the weather was too nice to stay indoors. We jumped in the car and headed for the River Market area of downtown. No plan (which drove our #3 CRAZY), just a few ideas. While Dustin and I did a “tour” of downtown on the blog before, […]
