A fantastic (and warm!) weekend...

What a weekend! The weather was perfect, and though it is causing major spring fever, I was happy that the great weather showed up on a Saturday and Sunday, rather than the middle of the week when I'm stuck inside!!

The weekend started with a great Friday night with Dave and Alysia, where we enjoyed some amazing pizza from Generous George's Positive Pizza and Pasta Place---YUM! We worked off some of our generously portioned pizza by doing some Wii bowling and tennis at our place afterwards.

Saturday was all about being outside. We walked around Reston Town Center, something I hadn't done in quite some time--my how things have changed over there! We also played some real tennis (inspired from three weeks of watching the Australian Open--it isn't nearly as easy as they make it look on tv, and what happened to my back hand? It used to be pretty decent?!) and went for a long walk with Liddy. We ended the day by attending a Doggie Happy Hour (DHH) Baby Shower for Logan and Amanda, who are expecting their first child, Lilly, early next month. It was great to see our DHH friends again and can't wait for really warm weather so our outdoor DHH gatherings can resume.


We also spent a lot of time outdoors yesterday. Liddy got another long walk and Andy washed both cars (love saving that car wash money!). We also headed out to Andy's parent's house for a Sunday evening dinner party with Bebe, Mark and the boys. Liddy loves going to their house as she has the whole back yard to romp around in. I'm always amazed that even after being away from there for so long that she can quickly gather up her sticks that she's left in various areas around the yard. Too cute!

As far as weekends go, it's hard to ask for a better one...of course if it were seven days long, that might make it better!
