Beltway Bambinos

It’s hard to believe it is already mid-August and DCPS starts school on Monday. Summer flew by and we definitely didn’t do everything we had hoped to but we had a great time making memories and spending quality time together as a family. We wanted to make sure you hit some of OUR favorites before Summer is over. In no particular order, here are our top 13 highlights.

1. Baseball games at Nats Park and Bethesda Big Train (hello, champs!)
2. Climbing, exploring, creating and inventing at Port Discovery Children’s Museum
3. Splashing around at Yards Park and various DPR outdoor pools and splash pads and friends pools
4. Hiking and biking in Rock Creek Park
5. Experiencing Washington, DC’s most delicious restaurants with my husband and friends
6. Jazz in the Sculpture Garden— (final concert is Aug. 23, 2019)
7. Hitting the waves and boardwalk in Bethany Beach, Rehoboth and Ocean City. In need of an easy day trip?
8. Milking cows and goats, getting dizzy on rides, winning stuffed animals and more fair fun at the Friends of Frying Pan Farm Park 4H Fair and Carnival
9. Our annual trip to Dutch Wonderland + a new adventure afterwards to the Poconos
10. Horseback riding at Rock Creek Horse Center
11. Outdoor performance at Wolf Trap Children’s Theatre in the Woods
12. Endless late nights and having so.much.ice.cream – my kids {and myself} will definitely go through sweet treat withdrawals
13. Trying out tie-dye for our first time– it was SO easy and so much fun and will serve as a great reminder of the fun had in Summer 2019
