Visiting D.C.

Over the weekend Adam and I ventured to Washington, D.C. to visit my dear friends Susie, Jeff and baby Alex. I hadn't seen Alex since she was a wee baby so I was so anxious to spend time with her. She was such a happy baby!

I have my boots on, Uncle Adam! Let's head to the big city!

The Van Leuvens

The new World War II monument

After a long day of metro rides, visiting a few memorials, a brief visit to the very crowded Natural History Museum, a walk down the Mall and lunch, we headed home where Alex enjoyed her swing in the great spring weather!

Look that those teeth!

Saturday night for dinner we went to Bethesda. After dinner, we had gelato from Dolcezza. I enjoyed Mango Campari & Orange Honey Cardamon (a bit spicy!) and Susie had chocolate and lime. What a great treat! I have had gelato in Italy and Susie has several times... this is just like the real thing!

We had a great weekend catching up!

Girls got to have girl talk; guys got to have German beer and schnapps.

All were happy!
See you the next time we come to visit, Alex!

Adam made a new friend!
