DC Holiday

I wasn't in the holiday spirit after returning from my vacation. We spent Thanksgiving in Prague & I really didn't feel like Christmas was right around the corner. When I got home I felt like I had been hit in the face with all things Christmas. I figured it was time to come back to reality & attend some parties. So that's what I did this past weekend (obv!)

My friend Terrell invited a couple of friends over for craft night. She also made the prettiest drinks + food.

If these drinks don't get you into the holiday spirit, I don't know what does!

The food wasn't half bad either ;)!

We made ornaments for her tree, such a cute idea! That's my Kate Spade inspired polka-dot ornament (haha!) I never said I was good at crafts ;).

Now I was officially feeling the holiday vibe! On Saturday, I met up with Zach at the Sculpture Garden to go ice-skating.

DC is so gorgeous! I love ice-skating in the nations capitol. If you are visiting or live here I highly recommend going. It's so fun + you can't get much better scenery!

It took us sometime to get used to being on the ice again. But once we got the hang of it we were rocking & rolling!

After ice-skating we checked out the holiday market downtown. I love markets like this! You can find unique gifts & yummy treats. Check it out!

Before we headed home we got a treat at DBGB & we looked at the Christmas tree downtown.

Now I am officially ready to go home for the holidays!

  5. Prague was amazing! We checked out the Christmas markets there (loved them!) I live in DC now but I am originally from Salt Lake City, Utah. I am happy to see the markets making there way over to the US. I think it's a fun tradition + I love local stuff. I would also love a little bit of snow to make it feel more like Christmas too. Thanks for reading!
