We finally made it there.....

When we used to live in Alexandria, we had an annual tradition to visit the National Tree and have dinner at Old Ebbits Grill. Well, with the addition of kids, dinner at Old Ebbits isn't quite as enjoyable as it used to be. But this past Saturday, we did make it downtown to enjoy the trees, trains, yule log and nativity.



Afterwards, we crossed the bridge back into VA and enjoyed a "gourmet" dinner at Noodles & Company at Pentagon Row. The food was good, but the ambiance was just not quite the same as Old Ebbits (especially with the fire alarm going off for the last 10 minutes of dinner). After dinner, we dragged the boys through Pentagon City Mall (I miss that mall) to finish up some Christmas shopping. We made it home around 10:45, after stopping at two more malls on the way home. The boys were troopers that night and a special thanks to the DVD player in the van.
