One of the amazing perks of being a "mom blogger" in the Northern VA area is that there is a great network of people out there. There is always someone to get advice or ideas from, make playdates with, and new friends to make. Last week, I was lucky enough to be invited to a local bloggers event,
NovaLive. It was put on by the fabulous Micaela from
supernovamommy and Andrea from
Real Housewives of Northern Virginia to benefit the charity
Mission Sleep. I met many ladies who I have followed for a long time online, and it was so nice to finally put faces to blogs!
Recently, I discovered the blog
Whispers and Shouts, a witty, funny, and down-to-earth blog written by Dawn, the mom of two adorable twin boys. I love her outlook on life's ups and downs, and her take on the hilarious things her toddlers do and say. She also blogs about her adventures in the DC area (sound familiar)? I was so excited to meet her and find out that she was following me too!
This weekend, she invited us to go back to the
National Building Museum. On Monday morning, we met up in DC with Dawn and her sweet kiddos, Calvin and Clark, and we were also joined by their friends, Angela and Andrew. We had a nice time, and I am so thankful that the blog networking has allowed me to meet such amazing people. Thank you so much Micaela and Andrea! Here are some fun pictures from our trip:

Once again, loving the doll house. I think we have an idea for a birthday gift! |
Can't wait to do it again sometime soon, Dawn!
