I vacated the DC NOVA area for the 4th of July since I've already done the whole "tourist" national mall fireworks thing before. I was also in need of the beach so Kyle and I hit the road to Cape May, NJ (got to check a new state of my list). It was nice to get away and very low key we checked out some local sites, went to some wineries and a brewery, an enjoyed the sun and sand (maybe a little too much sun since we did get a little burnt one day).

It's now the first day of summer but I kind of started the whole summer thing a few weeks ago.....and spent the first weekend in June at the beach in Ocean City for a quick getaway with the girls. It was a great way to start my favorite season and work on my base tan :) We hit up some bars, good restaurants, drank some wine, laid out at the beach & pool, and got some much needed R&R! Enjoy the photos below, I missed the beach the minute we left. The water was pretty chilly, in fact I was the only one to get a little wet by it but I can't resist the ocean waves splashing me. We also tried Stand Up Paddleboarding and loved it so much we went again and did yoga on them. It was a ton of fun and something new.
I feel like a broken record when it comes to moving to a new apartment, maybe that's because this is my fourth one in under three years....oh well that's life. But now that I'm finally feeling all settled and stuff I wanted to share some photos! The move wasn't too bad and I had a lot of help which was great and I'm loving my new place (along with the cats loving it and the huge windows!) a lot. My door is always open to visitors if anyone feels like visiting! There's still a few things I would like for my place including stools (I only have 2 chairs), a coffee table, and a cute kitchen cart I found at IKEA. The apartment is very open and tons of empty walls so I'm not sure what I will do with all the space but I will take any suggestions! Enjoy the tour and my cats since they like to appear in my photos!
I never tend to make a big deal of my birthday but I do enjoy spending extra time with friends and family for any type of celebration and I was super lucky this year with lots of fun dinners and a great birthday! The theme was definitely FOOD which is probably obvious from all of my photos being of the food and not the company whoops! Next time I will try to be better about capturing the people since that's what makes celebrating so much fun.
I ended up trying a bunch of new restaurants in DC and Baltimore and I even got to celebrate on my actual birthday with family. The Schreiners decided last minute to take a trip to DC for spring break from North Carolina and it worked out perfect to meet up with them. Overall pretty great bday week (as long as I avoid the actual age...) Enjoy the photos below of all the yummy food and a few fun gifts! |
