We had such a fantastic weekend! One of my friends from college came to visit from Texas. It was full of laughs, memory making and new adventures. I love the friends that you can see after much time has passed and it feels like you just saw them yesterday. In the very best way possible, I felt like a tourist in my own city this weekend. I need to get out and explore more often!
We started with a visit to the new Nationals baseball stadium to see them take on the Giants.
We got to see Strasburg pitch and purchased tickets for when the Nationals play the Phillies in a few weeks (I can't wait--the Phillies are my team!!)
On Saturday we headed to the Tim McGraw concert!
You can see why this weekend was affectionately dubbed "Big Beer Weekend 2010".
Jesse preferred a giant plastic guitar that was half margarita and half strawberry daiquiri.
On Sunday we went over to the National Harbor for lunch at Rosa Mexicano and some wandering.
This is where they moved The Awakening sculpture.
Much to my very excited surprise, they opened an entire store dedicated to peeps here! It's a shrine to the ooey-gooey sugar-coated marshmallow goodness.
Love me some peeps!
When we got home, Jesse and I watched my beloved Spanish team beat the Netherlands in the World Cup Finals (Viva la Furia Roja!), made some dinner and watched Burma VJ. So many good times were had this weekend! Hope you enjoyed your weekend too!
