Drag Queen High Heel Race

A few days before Halloween, Dupont Circle holds an annual Drag Queen high heel race. My roommate Chareese loves to go to this little shindig and this year I decided to see what it was all about! The streets were full of unique costumes and very crazy men. They parade around the street and then line up and race from one end to the other in their high heels. It was a pretty crazy night. The best part was seeing them fall on their faces! :)

Mommy in DC

This fabulous lady was in town last week for a layover and I got to spend the day with her. I love my mommy and we always have so much fun when we are together. It doesn't take much to make us laugh and we always enjoy our time with one another! She even brought me some yummy fresh sourdough bread from San Francisco and my favorite airplane cookies! She's the best!!!

Back to work

Love you mom! Can't wait to see you next week for Thanksgiving!

Weekend in CT

In addition to going to the baseball game in NYC, I got to hang out with the kiddos for a few days as well! Here are just a few of the fun things that we did while I was visiting. The first thing little Matthew said to me when I woke him up from his nap was, "We have funfetti cupcakes to make with you Jennah!" So that's the first thing we did! Oh how I miss my days with these children!

On our way to the pumkin patch













My drive back to DC was so beautiful!

I wish it had a different ending

Game 6 ALCS...Angels vs. Yankees. This did not go how I had hoped, but it was still an amazing game nonetheless. When the Angels won game 5, I jumped into my car the next morning and drove up to Connecticut to go to game 6 with Paul. We had talked about going to a playoff game for the past month and with him being a huge Yankee fan and me being "somewhat" of an Angel fan (totally being sarcastic) we got our chance! It was a win win weekend for me...not a win win win though. I got to hang out with Sammie and Matthew all weekend AND see my boys play in game 6. Too bad they couldn't pull off the other win of the weekend. So sad :( After getting half way down to the stadium on Saturday night in the pouring rain, we thought it would be wise to listen to the radio or check ESPN.com to see if the game was still going? Well it had been postponed until Sunday night. Paul and I headed back home and were just going to have to wait one more day for a baseball game. Sunday night turned out to be a beautiful night for a game but not a good night for an Angel win. Even with me sporting all of my Angel gear, being a lone Angel fan in Yankee stadium and getting my picture taken for the OC Register again, couldn't help light up the Halo back home. I love the game of baseball enough to know what an unbelievable game this was to be at. The Yankees clinching the pennant their inaugural season in their new stadium. My boys hit the showers and ended their season that night. Please April, hurry up and get here...I need Angel baseball back in my life!

Until next season....
