Reunited

Nate made it back from sunny Hawaii yesterday about 11:30. We napped the afternoon away and headed into DC for a fancy dinner alone! We dined at Equinox. It was about a block from the White House. When we turned onto the street, we saw Marine One Helicopter landing at the White House. We were super excited. We thought maybe Obama was coming home from somewhere. We quickly learned that was not the case. For the next hour, the helicopter took off and landed....over and over and over again. I hope the Obama's were not home because that would have driven anyone crazy! Dinner was fabulous! We did some shopping after dinner and then headed home.
This morning we made it to church and then headed back into DC to try out another nice restaurant, Matchbox. This restaurant was in Chinatown. So, after lunch we walked down to the Newseum. We see this museum everytime we head towards the Capitol. It looks amazing and we always wanted to try it out. I was super glad we did this one minus the kids. We were exhausted and ready for another nap after the Newseum, so we started home. This weekend there was a biker rally on the Mall. Traffic was diverted and it took us FOREVER to get home. We took a quick nap, headed back out to dinner at Guapos, and then to the movies. We saw Night at the Museum. This was definitely a DC weekend all around! We have enjoyed every minute so far! Tomorrow we are going to look for Link a big boy bed!! AND...I am sure we will get a few more meals out! :)
