September (This was in the queue to be posted, but just realized it wasn't there!)

We are loving the fall weather! In the fall in DC, it's all about outdoor cafes...we love it.

Eastern Market area sidewalk cafe.

Asian Spice patio

We celebrated Mac's birthday at a beautiful place near our apartment, Corduroy.

Me, Mac, Scott and Megan...we clean up pretty good!

Street festival - Arts on Foot, DC

Did I mention Mac is now making WINE?

And we also made some Limoncello and Khalua...

Mmmm, Limoncello..Mac had to zest 14 lemons for this!

Raspberry Khalua!

And that was the end of September!

End of a Great Summer!

I can't believe summer is over!

We had so much fun, check out the slideshow posted on the right side of the blog, it's got a lot of pics from all of our adventures.

We kicked off July with a dinner with our friends Diana and Wes, then went to my office in Rosslyn to watch the fireworks. Awesome to see, we'd never seen the DC fireworks and they did not disappoint.

We had a visit from Dad & Pam. We walked their legs off! (sorry about that you two)

Mac and the kids went to California, and Justin and I met up with them for a long weekend. Always good times, wine, poker, great meals and lots of laughter!

Dinning girls at the beach...

Dinning boys...

We followed that up with a visit from Brandon and Bre (Brenda's two oldest)...Brandon in our pool

Bre and I did some shopping

We also explored more in DC and found some new places to eat like Cafe du Parc and Asia 9, also new exhibits like the Norman Rockwell exhibit at the National Portrait Gallery...that was really cool to see in person and Madeline Albrieghts pin collection (which she has a book about). And we finally went to the National Aquarium in Baltimore. BEAUTIFUL! (pics of most of these are in the slideshow)

So check out the slideshow and let me know what you think. It's super easy to make your own. Make one and send it to me! I'd love to see some of your pics.

That's about it for now, we did a 7.5 mile walk today and Mac already went to bed! I'm not far behind.

Good night!
