November Visit

This past weekend we were lucky enough to have some great friends come and visit. This was their first visit to our new house so it was nice to show them around. This month has been very mild in terms of weather so we took full advantage of this on Saturday. We decided to go to National Harbor for the day and do some shopping, eating, and sight seeing. It was beautiful weather so Chase had a ball running around outside. What would a National Harbor visit be without sitting on "The Awaking" a very popular statue....

We stopped for some lunch at Rosa Mexicana and had a fantastic meal. We enjoyed some table side guacmole and great lunch plates. We did some more shopping after lunch and headed home. Since it was still so nice out when we got home all the boys threw around the football outside.

The weekend recap wouldn't be complete without talking about our breakfast. I have been dying to make some pumpkin pancakes and Zak and Christie were the perfect victims (guests) to try them. So Saturday morning I whipped them up and let me tell you they were delicious. So good that we had them again on Sunday morning. I would recommend these puppies to anyone who loves the fall flavors and pumpkin. (Click here for recipe). I also made some awesome stuffed shells for saturday but forgot to take a picture. We all scarfed them up too fast to get a photo.

All in all it was a great weekend with friends and we look forward to have them back in the near future.
