Every time my husband and I visit DC we remind each other how much we love this city. To us it's the perfect blend of city and suburbia. Actually, it's an awful lot like Boston - beautiful side streets of exposed bricks, charming townhouses and green community parks ... but without the Bostonian accent that I have grown so fond of. {There is something to hearing "Bawhston" that makes me so nostalgic. And trust me, coming from the non-accent state of Connecticut, I never thought I'd say that!}

Even better than the city itself, we got to spend time with my cousins and their adorable one year old {and one on the way!}. Take a look at a few family photos that we snapped on Saturday afternoon.
