We took the water taxi from Old Town, Alexandria to the National Harbor.
It was suuuuch a gorgeous day!



These jumping pictures really make me happy. Great idea, Tara!

Good company at RFD's in Chinatown!


(We also went kayaking earlier that day and I really, really wish I took a photo because it was my favorite part of the day, but you can get a sense of what it was like by taking a look at these photos here: http://outdoors.webshots.com/album/567027733cRSXBt)

This was my last day at work and the beginning to a very good weekend!


The office threw me a surprise lunch/goodbye party.

These men would always, always say goodbye to my co-workers and me at the end of the day.

Leaving PMA!

Celebrating with some of my co-workers at Guapo's.
(I have a sombrero because they said it was my birthday).
I am so thrilled about what's in store for me these next couple of months, but I will certainly miss everyone (well, mostly everyone) from work! Despite our complaints and petty problems, I'm so happy that I got to spend most of my time here with you all :)

Tomorrow (hopefully) will be the first day of many wonderful days where I won't be going home from work with a headache because of answering the office phone. Allelulia! So relieved... :)

Mila Sue! I'm gonna miss you! :(
It was my last day working with my Mila! I'm going to miss eating at Noodles, shopping at Ann Taylor Loft, her funny stories and most of all her smiling face.
Thanks for making work so much fun!

I took this at a stoplight at the intersection between Joyce St. and Columbia Pike in Arlington right before a thunderstorm. Normally, I like the feeling and excitement before a summer storm, but because it has been raining so much, I'd take sunshine any day.

This was taken in front of a garden shop in Del Ray. I am so excited to move back to my home in Virginia Beach in a couple of weeks. I have all sorts of ideas of how I want to make it my own. This shop inspired me. (I especially love the chubby Old World Robin!)

Saturday was such a beautiful day to spend out in Purcellville, VA at the Sunset Hills winery.



I did not take this picture below, but thought it was such a happy one that I could not resist posting it on here.



First birthdays are always a joyous occassion. Friends and family gathered to celebrate my nephew turning one :)

One of my favorite things about living in DC is being surrounded by so many great museums and memorials. The following photos (I couldn't pick just one) are of the Washington Monument and the World War II Memorial. They're exquisite to see at night.
