One of my favorite things about living in DC is people we love come and visit this place we call home. I love that we now live in a place filled with so much history and things to do that people want to visit our home. It gives us a chance to revisit some places […]

Summer in Washington DC- Hot but worth it
We have been checking things off the DC bucket listen between the craziness of our work schedules. Trying to blog about those things we have done has proven challenging. For example, I went to bed at 6 pm the other night and crashed hard. We love our jobs, and our day to day life here. […]
Cherry Blossom 2019… The Reality
Weekend 1 of visiting the cherry blossoms ended with us just across the street from the Tidal Basin and just across the street from the festivities. We did not make it inside…Of course the walk to the main even is still beautiful, but after being herded like cattle in a very narrow walkway; as a […]

The Smithsonian Folklife Festival was no exception, as we were just walking to the metro station and ran into this […]

Washington DC Holocaust Memorial Museum
I have been waiting to visit the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum since I arrived in Washington D.C. Though admission is free, getting tickets can be challenging. There are only so many tickets per day, and per time. When I saw some tickets were available on Saturday, I jumped on them. So far this has […]

Botanical Gardens DC, Pizza & Farmers Markets
The weekend finally arrived and all I had planned was to find some great produce at the farmers market. The Botanical Gardens DC (United States Botanic Garden) and stopping for pizza were an unexpected twist. I really wasn’t expecting to blog about the day, but it was too cool to not share. We knew we […]

Museum of the Bible, Food, and Our First Visitors
Our friends, Brittany & Joseph, came into town a few weeks ago and we had a blast doing some DC stuff with them. While we did quite a few things that weekend, from walking the National Mall to trying to go to Ford’s Theater (We only were able to tour the museum across the street, […]
