Folklife Festival DC on the National Mall
We have decided that there is ALWAYS something happening on the National Mall in DC. From a rally, to a parade, to a festival, we can pretty much count on running into something to see.

DC, Spring, Museums Oh My
I feel like no matter how much we see in DC, we still have barely scratched the surface. I am so glad it is finally feeling warmer here, however, it seems to be warming up quicker than I would like. Soon it will be so hot that we will have to make sure our “adventures” […]

The Cherry Blossom Festival & Easter
Our first holiday Easter in this new city was low key, but interesting. After church, we decided to go to the Tidal Basin to check out the Cherry Blossom Festival while the trees were in full bloom. We have heard so much about them, and had seen that there is a festival to go along with […]
