What We Did During Chuck's Spring Break: Wednesday

I love today. Love. I got up, ran, came home to an already-fed little boy; I showered and got ready for the day. We then headed downtown around 8 in the morning. Although we hit some traffic on the GW parkway, it didn't make me want to get out of the car and jump in the Potomac (like it has the potential to do). We arrived at the Tidal Basin around 9 a.m. and found parking near Hains Point. Because of the earliness of the day, there weren't that many people there. We were able to walk the dog and the stroller easily and quite enjoyably. We even made a quick detour at the FDR Memorial where Rhett absolutely loved the waterfalls. He was not happy to have to leave them. By the time we were done (around 11ish), things had definitely gotten busier and we weren't sad to go. But it was a gorgeous day with gorgeous weather and gorgeous people. Right?! Of course right!

  2. Beautiful pictures!! Looks like you had a perfect day!

    My spring break is next week but with Zack stil in school and lack of awesome near by excursions, I think my spring break will be a bit less eventful!

    Glad you are having an awesome week! You deserve it!
