Missing the long weekend already



Long weekends are the best, right? After a few weeks of what felt like non-stop travel (I’m sure first trimester tiredness had nothing to do with it), our little family spent the weekend at home and enjoyed every minute of it. We completed some important house tasks (weeding and cleaning), ate some delicious food (greek and froyo), caught our first (and probably last) Nationals baseball game of the season, spent time with friends, and watched an unmentionable number of Breaking Bad episodes.




After traveling to Maine and Texas, I was thankful for a relaxing weekend at home. That being said, our time in Maine was amazing! We had so much fun sharing our happy news with my family and I think it’s safe to say there are lots of people excited about Baby Wotring’s arrival! While in Maine we took a day trip to Bailey’s Island one day with my mom and sister. It was a gorgeous day to be near the water.

We spent another day at Crescent Beach and while my southern husband remained wrapped in his long sleeved quarter zip on the beach, because in his words it was freezing, my mom, sister and I enjoyed the sunshine and even ventured into the chilly ocean.

As always, it was sad to say goodbye to my family. Our time in Maine always seems to go by so fast but I only had 36 hours in Virginia before jumping on another plane to head to Austin, Texas for a dear friend’s bachelorette weekend! Let me just say Austin was awesome and lots of fun was had by all! My friend, the bride, loves dinosaurs and her nickname is Schelskosaurus, so we had cute tanks customized on Etsy that said “Schelskosaurus’ Last Single Stampede” on them. They definitely attracted a lot of attention on 6th Street and helped the girls acquire quite a few free drinks!

I’ve got a short week this week since I’m heading to Savannah, Georgia on Friday morning for another friend’s bachelorette weekend! Hopefully the short flight won’t leave me as tired as my travel to Austin did a few weeks back. Looking forward to seeing friends and exploring Savannah – it’s my first time visiting and I anticipate lots of southern charm and yummy food.
