Greg had a birthday so we celebrated with lasagna, salad, and homemade chocolate cake. Happy birthday Greg!

Sunday dinner was homemade barbecue chicken sandwiches, crunchy coleslaw, and Mac and cheese. Yum. (Taken with Instagram)

Tonight's dinner was baked pasta with spinach, tomatoes, sausage, and smoked mozzarella with a salad for a healthy kick.

I'm playing this great remix of Party in the USA on repeat today.  Happy 4th of July!

To escape a steamy Saturday in the city, we drove out to Annapolis for the afternoon.  After enjoying the view in Annapolis Harbor, we made our way to Canter's Riverside Inn for dinner.  The setting is not fancy, but the food was worth the hour wait.  Nothing says summer like drinks by the water and fresh seafood on wooden picnic tables.

Carly Rae Jepsen does "Call Me Maybe" with Jimmy Fallon, The Roots, and schoolroom instruments.  I love this.

I'm currently listening to this song by Perseus on repeat.  It's my perfect summer song.

Kate and I enjoyed a rooftop happy hour at the Donovan House. We were able to enjoy the DC view before the storm clouds rolled in. (Taken with instagram)
