The Farm Life



This past weekend we ventured out to western Virginia to a beautiful farm outside of Scottsville with our two friends Sara and Paul. The weekend was perfect in every way. We relaxed, caught up with friends, visited a few wineries, and visited an apple orchard. The dogs, both Sara and Paul's golden retriever and Rex, thought they had died and gone to heaven- and at times, so did I! Here are some photos with captions.

We had a toasty fire burning Saturday night out here

Weekend Edition


Happy Friday Everyone! What are you up to this weekend? I feel a little discombobulated since I thought that the Superbowl was this weekend! So I'm not totally sure what the the next two days has in store for me, but we'll soon find out!

I wanted to mention that Matt and I discovered two really neat stores this week. One, is Politics and Prose way way up on Connecticut Ave. People have recommended it to us for a long time, but since it's kind of a trek, we just now got the energy to give it a go. And wow, we'll definitely be back. They have an amazing selection on the first floor, and then SURPRISE a second floor is filled with even more books and a kids space. There is also a quaint coffee shop on the lower level. And...they may allow dogs in the store. I can't be sure about this, but while we were there we saw three! Maybe one day when Rex calms down, he'll wear a sweater vest and sip on a latte at Politics and Prose!

The other store that we visited briefly is TROHV in Takoma Park, DC. It's a modern/industrial furniture store that sells all kinds of goodies. It reminded me of a really fancy Urban Outfitters or Anthropolgie without the clothes. I loved everything inside and have already fantasized about how it would all fit in our apartment, now I just need to win the lottery!

The photo above was taken by me with Instagram from a trip to Harper's Ferry, WV last summer.

Weekend Edition



Finally got the tree up, and we are enjoying the lovely light and evergreen aroma!





What are you doing this weekend? Matt and I have tons to do and not enough time. Mainly we need to get our new car looked at since it failed inspection, finish Christmas shopping, AND ride my early Christmas present! Matt surprised me last night with an awesome new bicycle.

A weekend in DC

Matt and I are looking forward to relaxing this weekend. We'll probably walk Rex around, he's looking for some time outside. Here's a picture of him peering out the window.
