Happy
Saturday! I am linking up with Doodle Bugs Teaching for Five for Friday (a day
late) as well as Run Miss Nelson’s got the Camera for Saturday Snapshots.
I
finally feel like I’ve had a chance to slow down, catch up on sleep, and blog
after a whirlwind two weeks. Here’s a little glimpse at what I’ve been up to:
This was not our first time in D.C., but it was our first time seeing the Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Memorial. It was awe-inspiring! The detail was amazing….if you haven’t seen it in person yet, you should.
We walked around to see all of the monuments….here we are in front of the Lincoln Memorial.
Being at our friend's wedding definitely brought back great memories of our own wedding...it was only 2 months ago. So I thought I'd share a couple new photos of that great day.
On the teaching front, Miss McDonald and I are
talking about having a Bay Area Blogger Meet Up. If you live in the San Francisco Bay Area (or
within driving distance) and are interested in getting together and sharing
great conversation and ideas with other teacher bloggers, let us know. If you
are interested, you can comment below or email me at laurendewees@gmail.com or
Miss McDonald at missmcdonaldsmemoirs@gmail.com.
Have a great weekend!
Looks like a fun trip to DC!! I went to school there, and a piece of my heart lives there! :o) Love the wedding photos!

Thanks Emily! DC is a great place to visit...there's so much to see I would need weeks to see everything.
DeleteHappy wedding...two months ago. How did I miss that??? You look so happy! I haven't been to D.C. in YEARS!!!!! I would love to go again now that I'm older and would actually appreciate it more.

Thanks for the well wishes Alison! I haven't been on this blog very frequently this year with all the wedding stuff, but I am focused on blogging more this summer. As a teacher, I get so much more out of sightseeing than I did when I was younger. I often act as a tour guide for my husband. He's a pretty good sport about it.
DeleteYour pictures are great! Happy wedding to you and your husband. You look so beautiful! I wish I could go back to D.C. I haven't been there in so long, and really want to go back now as an adult. I think that I would get so much more out of it!

Thank you Ana! We had a great wedding day with our family and friends. I highly recommend going back to D.C. It is amazing what we notice as teachers that we didn't as kids.
DeleteLoved your pictures. Thanks for sharing and linking up. I've never been to D.C. but its on my list of things to do. Your wedding picture was so pretty. Congrats!
ReplyDeleteThank you! I plan on borrowing my husband's fancy camera to take some better photos for next week's link up. I would definitely recommend taking a trip to D.C. We stayed at a hotel within walking distance of all the monuments, so we didn't have to deal with the crazy D.C. traffic.
DeleteCongrats on being newly married! I've always wanted to head to D.C! So much history to take in in that area. I wish I was closer to the Bay area (I'm in Southern CA) I would love to attend your meet up! Have fun!

Thank you for the well wishes Chelsea! I highly recommend taking a trip to D.C., especially since you teach 5th grade. There is so much to see and learn. I used to teach in Southern California for my first 6 years. Too bad you aren't closer...I love to meet up with other teachers in person. I used to teachCalifornia for my first 6 years.
