Great Weekend!

Hey everyone!

Wanted to start out saying that it was great to see everyone over Thanksgiving. Steph and I couldn't believe how long it had been since we'd seen some of you. Hopefully it won't be so long until next time.

Well we thankfully made it back to D.C. in one piece, even though we almost needed our bathing suits when we landed into Ronald Reagan on Tuesday. It's a long story... but we basically thought the plane was going into the Potomac as we were landing.

Anyways, it was great for both of us to have a short week last week. Although this week will certainly feel like an eternity.

On Friday, we went to Georgetown for dinner. We went a place we had been to before called Pizza Paradiso. As the name implies, its got some pretty good pizza. We had then planned to take a leisurely stroll through Georgetown but it has gotten quite cold up here so our walk was cut short.

On Saturday we got our first snow. I think it was more snow than we had seen in Georgia for about five years. It snowed pretty much all day, but didn't stick all day so the roads weren't too bad. We decided that on a cold day nothing tastes better than a hot bowl of chili so we went a Washington DC icon: Ben's Chili Bowl. If you think of The Varsity, but a little run down and a lot of people in a small space, then you've got a pretty good idea about the place. We had a great time--the staff were singing and dancing the whole time along with music in the background. You can see a couple pictures below.



And outside...



We both got chili and then split some cheese fries, one of my favorites. Afterward we took some Tums, got back on the train and headed home.

Now what else did we do on Saturday....., oh yeah, we watch the Ramblin' Wreck from Georgia Tech win the ACC Championship!!! Go Jackets!!! So that pretty much capped off our fun weekend! On Sunday we took it easy and got ready for the week.

Hope everyone has a great week!
