weekend in pictures

last weekend was all sorts of good times. my lovely friend shannon came to dc, along with her fantastic husband bret and their son elliott, who is totally my boyfriend.

it's super neat to see my college buddy (and official corrupter! i was quite the naive little flower when i got to school), now such a natural, devoted mom.

we dragged little elliott all over dc for the afternoon, touring the monuments and gabbing nonstop.

we finished the day with a bottle of wine in shannon & bret's hotel room. it was a wonderful, tiring, excellent day.

on sunday, alyssa, jennifer and i drove out to the kuuuuuntry to go hang out on a farm and pick pumpkins. and also be as cheesy as possible.


i think we accomplished that goal quite handily.

it was an excellent way to spend a weekend, although very tiring.. i should have taken monday off to recuperate :-)

  3. That kid is going to be a heart breaker with those cute cheeks and all. Cutie!

    I always think we need Mondays off to get over our wild weekends. It's only fair.

  12. You were at Great Country Farms?!?! I think that is twice in one week in Loudoun?
    Elliot is a doll, no wonder you fell for him! And your pics always make me think I need a trip into D.C. Although, I rather like living in the kuuuuuntry.
