Has it really been five years??

October 22, 2010 will mark Josh and my five year anniversary. It doesn't feel like it has been that long, however it also doesn't feel like I have known Josh for 14 years. We weren't sure what we would be able to accomplish for our anniversary this year due to the baby being due to arrive the middle/end of September 2010. So we decided to sort of celebrate early. Josh and I haven't had a vacation just the two of us since our honeymoon, so we decided to take a quick weekend trip to DC. I honestly have to say it was one of the best trips we have ever been on. Neither of us wanted to come home. We got to do so much, but yet it was relaxing at the same time. We got a great deal on our hotel, I did not think staying in the city for four days for under $400 was a bad gig. The Capitol Hill suites was a good experience. We got to experience a few things in DC that we had never seen before. You would think growing up in Virginia, DC would be the last place you would want to go but there was so much we had not done before. The Holocaust, Ford's Theater, Spy Museum and the Botanical Gardens were all things one or both of us had yet to experience. I do have to admit the decision to walk all the way back to our hotel from Ford's theater was a bad choice. It was such a beautiful day though we could not resist. Let's just say toward the end of the walk my top shirt came off and my under shirt was lifted to expose my very "hot, round" belly! I was tempted to pull and Annie Garman and poor my water over my head, but I resisted. I am definitely thankful for the time Josh and I got to spend together. It was nice just to relax together, just the two of us with no chores, no projects and no major renovation construction in the background.
