Just Another DC Weekend

Hello again!  Well, it's another day done in Washington, DC...and I'm ready for another weekend :) This past weekend, we soaked up some of the DC culture and did something touristy (one of our many New Year's resolutions) and went on a tour of the Capitol.  It was actually really fun and I learned quite a bit...I felt like I was on a field trip in elementary school :)  We really are lucky to live in this amazing city and I'm glad we're finally starting to take advantage of living here!

The Capitol...SO pretty!

The rotunda inside the Capitol - awe inspiring!

The exact center of Washington, DC.
 
On Sunday, since we're so close to Baltimore (and the Skins didn't quite make it to the Super Bowl this year), we decided to adopt the Ravens as our local team and cheer them on (to a win!).  We kicked off the day with an amazing (and unfortunately gluttonous) brunch with my co-workers from Patton Boggs.  We have such a great group of people there - I'm so lucky to be a part of the PB family...now if only the bar were passed and I were working already :)

Churros...the grand finale to our yummy brunch!
After brunch (and a short nap!) we headed down to Matt and Emily's in Alexandria for a Super Bowl party...and we got to bring the pups...so much fun!  Good food (way to much food!) and great company made for the best football game I've watched in a while :)

Jell-O shots...purple in honor of the Ravens :)

The crew cheering on the Ravens...and eating ;)

Tensie & Matt loving on Maggie.

Honey and Auntie Em...Honey's look, um, special :)

Me, Tensie, & Matt with Maggie & Pepper (new BFF's).

The hostesses with the mostest: thanks Matt & Em!

Honey loves being the center of attention!
Well, that's about all she wrote for tonight...time to wrap up and get ready for another busy day...much love until the sun comes out tomorrow :)
