Merry Christmas from DC

Christmas is 5 days away! And only 3 days til I get to see Giselle and the rest of the family! S2h and I will be heading to the North Pole (aka NH) to meet up with everyone and celebrate. We have been trying to get into the spirit here in DC...some photo proof!

Still Celebrating Pumpkins

Don't worry, I may have been lacking in posts, but I didn't forget to get pumpkins! S2H & I went to CT to visit my family and enjoy some Fall Festivities. We stopped by my favorite childhood grocery store, Stew Leonard's, and got pumpkins, apple cider donuts, and sticky pumpkin bread. While I was trying to reminisce and relive my childhood some little guy was taking over the pumpkin patch!

Giselle Takes DC

Ah the wonderful days of college and the fabulous vacations like "Fall Break." Miss. UNC herself came to visit me for her first fall break! (Thanks Padre for the sponsorship!) Now I must admit, I failed in the picture taking department. Giselle was here for four days and I only have a handful of pictures but we had tons of undocumented fun!
