I had the pleasure of attending the recent opening of Wood Ranch BBQ & Grill in Springfield, Virginia, with my husband (it was one of those nights that he was very grateful for my job). Although we were hosted for dinner, all thoughts (and photos from my phone) are my own. Let me start…
Tidal Basin Paddle Boats at the Jefferson Memorial in Washington DC #PSF
In an effort to find family fun activities at home (and not just when we’re on vacation) my husband came up with the idea to spend Labor Day in Washington DC (we live in the suburbs). When he told us what we’d be doing, we were all shocked. While none of the rest of…
Kicking Off Spring at Medieval Times
This weekend, my family and I enjoyed a night at Medieval Times Dinner and Tournament in Hanover, Maryland (courtesy of Medieval Times). This was our fourth visit to the Castle, and the evening was just as enjoyable as our first time. It’s crazy how much each of the kids gets into the show! If…
Spring Break at Medieval Times {BOGO Special}
I am excited to tell my Maryland – DC – Virginia readers about a special Spring Break offer at the Maryland Medieval Times. I am even MORE excited that my family and I get to spend another exciting evening at Medieval Times dinner theater. Although we were offered tickets for my family, all thoughts…
The 2015 Washington Auto Show {Win a Family 4-Pack of Tickets!}
Two years ago, about this time of year, I attended my very first Auto Show. This coming week, I will be attending the Washington Auto Show – my second auto show ever – as a Chevy Ambassador with a few of my favorite DC-area bloggers and I am beyond thrilled. The only way that…
Biking Along the C&O Canal #WW
My husband began a yearly tradition a few years ago. He spends one weekend in October doing an overnight biking and camping trip with one or more of the kids. This year, he took our 2 youngest kids on the biking adventure along the C&O Canal. While they only biked about 6 miles in…
Boating on the Potomac River #WW
We never have been that adventurous…but this summer’s time away has changed that. On Labor Day, after a few hours of thrilling house cleaning, we drove out to the Potomac River and did a little boating. Other than the fact that the air was stale and muggy and hot, the afternoon and evening were…
See Dirty Dancing: The Classic Story on Stage
I was 13 years old in 1987 when Patrick Swayze and Jennifer Grey danced across the screen in the movie sensation, Dirty Dancing. When I saw West Side Story in June, I saw that Dirty Dancing: The Classic Story on Stage was coming to National Theatre in Washington DC. I made a mental note…
Finally…a Graduation Celebration! #WW
It took us over a month after graduation to finally get everyone together for my oldest daughter’s “official” graduation celebration. She chose to go to the Holocaust Museum followed by dinner at Sophie’s, our favorite Cuban restaurant in DC. We had a fantastic time together, despite all of the time spent on our feet!…
West Side Story at the National Theater in DC {June 3-8}
I just won the Mom-of-the-Year Award. My theater-loving, musical-performing daughter is turning 15 next weekend and I am taking her to see West Side Story at the National Theater on opening night!! Note: our pair of tickets was provided by the theater in exchange for coverage, but all thoughts, opinions, and excitement are our…
