Weekend Celebrations

Last weekend was pretty joyful around here.  First, Andrew’s mom, aka Grandma Su-Su, was in town and it was a very nice treat for us and Julia to continue the grandparent visits!  Then on Friday, Andrew and I celebrated our 5th wedding anniversary.  Julia and I baked a special cake and she decorated it herself with M&M’s and mini chocolate chips.

Julia also declared that we needed “party hats”.  I’m not sure where she came up with that, I think it may be from daycare but we thought it was a great idea and Dad took charge of helping everyone construct hats.  Even Bunny got a hat!

On Saturday, Andrew, Su-Su, and Julia went to the pool in the morning and then Andrew and I went out to celebrate our anniversary while Julia stayed with Susan in the afternoon.  We had a wonderful time and enjoyed the luxury of going to see a movie and having a delicious dinner at a little Italian restaurant in DC, Obelisk.  Then Sunday was Easter!  There was lots of excitement as Julia hunted for eggs and checked out her basket.

  We continued the celebration with a special brunch at a Lebanese restaurant where we feasted on hummus, lamb, tabbouleh, cucumber yogurt salad, and lots of other Lebanese dishes. It was delicious and made even better because the weather was gorgeous and we could sit outside.

Tomorrow we are off on our next adventure, a trip up to RI to visit more family… and to maybe start scoping out places to live come late summer!!!
