More Date Nights!

We have really been taking advantage of the fact that we won't be able to just head out whenever we'd like to after Baby Grover makes her grand entrance.

We decided we'd take a trip the weekend after Memorial Day to the Outer Banks in North Carolina with some friends. We are really looking forward to staying at a beach house, cooking good food, and just relaxing. Thursday after yoga, I met up with Lane and Torin and some others who will be joining in the Outer Banks fun.

Lane and I took a nice walk through our neighborhood on Friday evening, stopped on the way back to try another Thai restaurant up the street, and then took another walk before we made our way home. We had beautiful spring weather. We ate outside and were totally comfortable on our walks. I was also proud of myself for exercising!

Saturday we took a trip to Medieval Times where we sat in an arena, watched knights battle it out in jousting competitions with all sorts of weaponry as we feasted on a medieval dinner with our bare hands. There was great fun to be had with our friends Jess & Sean and Alex & Matt.

We enjoyed the weather even more on Sunday afternoon by taking a walk through the Dupont Circle neighborhood, stopping at a cafe for lunch, and just people watching and relaxing at the circle. We decided to take the long way home and walked several extra blocks to a metro stop further away to take advantage of the lovely weather. Apparently, I may have overexerted myself because I had to take a big long nap as soon as we got home.
