Tanner and I had the most wonderful visit to Virginia and DC last week! Today I am sharing our version of a winter wonderland!

For months I dreamt about the sweet week that I would take Tanner “up North” (anything is up North when you are from Florida). It was unreal taking our baby to the place where we lived for the three years before we got pregnant. I was beyond excited to get this little man in some cooler weather, but of course Tanner proved to be a true Florida, summer baby. While I loved sporting my new parka from Gap, Tanner hated putting his coat on and stayed with a red nose! Let me tell you, I have new appreciation for all of the moms who experience winter with small kids! I would be like, sorry kids we can not go out today because mama does not have the energy to get you dressed.
All in all, TC was a trooper and we enjoyed several outdoor activities. My girlfriend, Josie, took us to the most EPIC vintage and home decor shop called, The Old Lucketts Store. The Old Lockets Store is what winter wonderland dreams are made of- beautiful Christmas decorations and details everywhere!!! If you live or visit the DC metro area, I highly recommend taking a trip to the shop out in Leesburg. Leesburg is a cute town with an adorable, old downtown as well. What festive activities are on your agenda this week? I think we are headed to see Santa and check out Zoo Lights this weekend!
Keep in touch,
Dani
Daniiii you two are simply the best! Wish you could come visit so we can play and eat snow together over here!

Yes! I will be thinking of you when I bundle Tanner up. Props to you for doing it daily!
This place looks like and dream! And you and Tanner are THE cutest duo
Dani, this post and these photos are so sweet and beautiful! It would be so much fun if you came to Montreal and played in the snow! I bet Tanner would love it!
I would love nothing more than to visit Canada and see some real snow!!!
LOVED having you and Tanner boy!! We had the sweetest time together… I’ll always cherish it! It was so special to have that quality time together so close to the holidays 🙂
