In May we went to went Ixtapa, Mexico with my sister and brother in-laws for a little vacation.  It was a lovely vacation and exactly what we needed after a busy winter!  On our last day the husband and I sat by the pool and soaked in the view as well as the quiet.  I wish I could go back right now!!!!

Check out more photos from our 2012 trip to Mexico here.

Happy Friday and have a fabulous weekend!!

A couple weeks ago I shared the geese picture.  After seeing the blog post my friend suggested I turn the picture black and white as well a crop it a little.  So that’s exactly what I did and let me just say I pretty much LOVE  how it looks as a black and white.  It’s funny how make a photo black and white can make such a big difference in the overall composition.

Happy Friday and have a great weekend!!

Although I love the glass shower in the master bathroom we noticed very quickly after moving in that it leaks … A LOT.  You couldn’t tell while you were showering, but when you picked up the bathmat there was water underneath.  It was a little annoying, but honestly it was more than that … it was frustrating.  We tried pointing the shower head towards the wall however that didn’t really help.  Plus who wants to shower so they are shielding the water from the door with their body!?!?!

When going through my condo pictures I realized I don’t have one that includes the very bottom of the shower, but you get the idea.  I didn’t realize until I started editing this picture you can see me (and my camera) in the reflection of the glass.

The husband has become quite handy at fixing things around the house, and this little problem we had was no different.  He did some research and determined all we needed was a 1/2 rounded threshold bar.  We (read he) could easily install this fix without having to hire anyone!

This fix required us to purchase a few things.  Here’s what we purchased:

For under $25 we got everything we need and using Amazon Prime it arrived in two days.  It took about an hour to measure, cut, level and seal the bar in the shower door threshold.

The new threshold is doing its job perfect!  No more water leaking out all over the bathroom floor or soaking the bathroom mat!!

Happy Home Improvement!

A couple weeks ago I shared a picture of the Washington Monument.  As I was reviewing the pictures from that day I realized there was one more shot from the day to share.  I love how the wings are fully extended for just one of the geese and the rest are just kind of chillin’. =)

Happy Friday!  Have a great weekend!

Despite living in the District of Columbia I often forget to take advantage of all the touristy things there are to do.  One afternoon the husband and I went to see the Korean War Memorial.  As we were walking towards our final destination I snapped the photo below.  I didn’t even realize how the white puffy clouds seemed to pop in the beautifully blue the sky!  It’s funny how sometimes a picture can highlight details that I didn’t notice/appreciate in person.

Have a great weekend.  Happy Friday!
