  • Bahama mama

    Bahama mama

    I wish I was sipping on one right now. Ah, a delicious Bahama mama. A few weeks ago I posted about our recent decision to visit the Bahamas in January. It was a bit spontaneous considering we didn’t officially know we were going until a few weeks prior to the trip. But again, that’s how…

    When you wish upon a star…

    … your dreams come true. Well, maybe… I think I’ve already shared how much I love Disney. I love Disneyland. I love Disney World. I love Pixar movies. I simply love Disney. Something about that company – it makes you believe in fairy tales and happily ever after. It’s silly, but sometimes you need to…

  • Great Falls Park

    Great Falls Park

    D and I recently took a few day trips out of DC. You know, get out of town to clear the mind and do something good for the soul. One of the last times, we ventured out to Great Falls Park in Virginia. And you guys, it’s gorgeous out there! **I should preface that the…

  • Another Vegas Trip

    Another Vegas Trip

    Hey friends and fam. If you were following me on instagram (@mari_delosreyes), you may have noticed that I was in Vegas… AGAIN!!! D and I were in Vegas last weekend to celebrate a friend’s Dirty Thirty. We went club hopping, saw LOVE, ate some pizza, toured a cactus garden, bought some cigars, relaxed by the…

  • Moment in Time

    Moment in Time

    D and I have been together for what some folks might call, a REALLY long time. We’re constantly being asked when we’ll settle down, have some kids, maybe raise a dog or two, and live in a nice home with a picket white fence. And sure some days, it’s nice to dream about all of…

    Jamestowne in May

    Derek’s parents were in town this past week and it was their first time visiting us since we moved here to D.C. Wanting to give them the best of the best time here, we crammed a lot of sightseeing into their 8 days with us. Yummy foods, monuments, memorials, tours, etc. I think we wore…

    Cherry Blossoms 2015

    Quick update: I’m on day 5 of my Whole 30. The first few days were rough… I was scrambling to figure out a meal plan for the week, but I think I have a handle on things now. With D’s schedule, I eat dinner alone most nights. So I’ve been making the leftovers his lunch…

  • D’s Birthday

    D’s Birthday

    D’s birthday was a month ago. I know, I’m late blogging about it. I have no excuse… Just like my birthday, we had a week-long celebration for D’s – taking a short trip out of town to Williamsburg and throwing a dinner party for him with friends. Williamsburg is probably one of our favorite getaways…

  • Our 2014 Vacation

    Our 2014 Vacation

    Vacation days are meant to be used!!!! If you haven’t used any vacation days, you’re well on your way to hating your job, your life, your situation, everything. No joke. I grew up believing that hard work pays off. It does, but it doesn’t. You can work 12 hr days, churn out paperwork like a…

  • Mom’s Visit to the District

    Mom’s Visit to the District

    My mom recently visited me for two weeks in May. I know, some folks think two weeks is a really, really, long time. But it went by like a flash and we had fun sightseeing and eating. Parents have that weird sixth sense that some thing’s not right with their child. Whether it’s knowing that…
