The weekend of the last post we went to a Greek Festival in the northern part of the DC. It was smaller than the one we had been to in Atlanta, but the food was fantastic. Our favorites were the tiropita and of course, the baklava. It was a good relaxing weekend.
After that, Ryan's friends came up to visit. It was good to have some visitors and I think the guys had a good time hanging out. They got to see a lot of the Mall, some while Ryan and I were working/school. Then we joined them for the weekend. We went to the Air & Space museum, the Old Post Office building (one of our favorites), and Arlington Cemetery.
About 3 days after the guys left, Ryan's parents came to visit! On Friday while Ryan was at work, the three of us went to see the WWII monument and ended up hitting all the major monuments--Lincoln, Vietnam, Korean and even old Albert Einstein. Unfortunately, we didn't have our professional photographer with us so I don't have any photos from this day. Saturday we went to a local farmer's market with them and then headed in to DC to the Old Post Office museum again. This time the weather was beautiful, and we always like taking visitors here. It's really a great view of DC.
Sunday we took them to see the Air & Space Museum out near Dulles airport. We had not gone back since we went with my parents so it was good to see some of the exhibit that we didn't have time for back then. There's just so much to see there. We also found some really good new restaurants with his parents and had some delicious dinners. As you can see below, we made a stop by Great Falls National Park on the way home from the museum.
Since all of our visitors left, we have been really busy. Ryan's work has been busy, and I had midterms that consumed me for a good two weeks. We are just now settling back into a routine. I guess that about catches everyone up. Enjoy the pictures. We are really excited to see most of you in a few weeks for Thanksgiving! Hope everyone is doing well!
