Here and Gone and Worn Out!

We had family from out-of-town visit us this past week.  
It's always great fun having family and friends come!  We enjoy using their visits as a chance to go and see a few of the sites of Washington D.C. that I never get tired of seeing.
~Tomb of the Unknowns, Arlington National Cemetery~
~Arlington National Cemetary~
I love the late nights, and the chance to cook, bake and eat out!
~Crabcake Sandwich at Clyde's~
This visit was perfect, in that when my family left, it had me wishing they could stay a day or two longer.
~Todd and Bella~
But maybe it's just as well that they're gone....  
Because I think all of us, including Todd are feeling just a little worn out.  Is that possible for him?

  5. Last summer my cousin rented a house on the beach, a Mile from my house. I wish she and her family would come back again.

  6. It's always so nice to have friends and family come for a visit. The day after they leave, there's this giant hole that they left. Then - the gap closes and everything is back to normal. Ahh ... that's nice too!

  7. Rest after family times is good for body and soul, and your ginger is so like ours, stretched out in perfect peace.

  8. Guests are always nice, but it's always equally nice when the house is yours again. :)

    I've eaten at Clyde's and now I'm going to be craving them from the wrong side of the country. Wahhhhh!

  13. The pets are adorable!! I was born and raised in D.C. and took everything for granted for a long time. The Southeast part.
